Writer and Artist, Mary Phillips visited our Pigeon River Pottery on Friday for a signing of her book “Booger”, a nature book. Mary says that she had 2 goals with writing her book; teach kids not to have bad habits and to learn about and respect nature.

A teacher from Country Oaks Elementary School in Commerce Township, MI, Ms. Lewalski, visited with Mary and Wild Rose Begonia while in town on her spring break. Ms. Lewalski is a 4th grade teacher at Country Oaks and was very excited to get a personal tour of the book from Mary, where she learned all about the special places and characters to show her class when she returned to school. Ms. Lewalski was also excited to learn that she was going to be a star on our blog and couldn’t wait to show her class!

Ms. Lewalski also posed for a picture with Mary and Wild Rose Begonia, but sadly it did not come out, sorry class

So, here is a shout out to Ms. Lewalski’s 4th Grade Class at Country Oaks in Commerce Township, MI from Pigeon Forge, TN!!

This past week we had what is commonly refered to as “Dogwood Winter”. We had several inches of snow in the mountains and just a dusting here at the Sqaure. That was followed by a couple of nights of below freezing temperatures. Thankfully it did not take the bloom off the Square!

Employees of the Old Mill Square are doing great things to support our Relay For Life of Sevier County. Our Old Mill Team is sponsoring Friday lunches for employees each week, hosting a Relay Breakfast for our guests on April, 23rd, and we even have an entry for the annual Womanless Beauty Contest!
Come out on May 1st & 2nd for 24 hours to Celebrate, Remember & Fight Back against cancer, at Patriot Park, here in Pigeon Forge, TN.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!

We hope to see you there!!
