Highlights from Yesterday — Carter County Chamber of Commerce Breakfast at Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park

A bright morning, a full room, and great conversation — all of it filling the park with community connections and local collaboration, the kind of energy that keeps this place thriving. Big thanks to the Carter County Chamber of Commerce, the Friends of Sycamore Shoals, and the cast of Liberty for helping make the morning feel especially rooted in history and community spirit.
