It seems the proposed development may not happen after all. This could be really good fallout from the economic situation we find ourself in. Nothing is for sure yet but rumors are flying........<BR/>CarolynCarolynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01580414081335997217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8666567176234962872.post-71174297324862198242008-10-08T13:38:00.000-04:002008-10-08T13:38:00.000-04:00Thanks Carolyn! I haven't heard any confirmed reports about Arrowmont, but the website: http://savearrowmont.wordpress.com/<BR/>is a great place to check for updates. <BR/><BR/>And though I was hesitant to start blogging, I definitely recommend it to others now. It's easy to set up, so just jump in with your painting, and start blogging! Good luck!Meagan Chaneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12267886313300802337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8666567176234962872.post-29398879944960392062008-10-08T12:49:00.000-04:002008-10-08T12:49:00.000-04:00How I would llove to be at Arrowmont with you.!!<BR/>Any word on the future of Arrowmnt?
