QUOTES
ABOUT THE 39TH ANNUAL APPALACHIAN
FESTIVAL
One of the reasons
the Appalachian Festival is so popular
is because of the demographic make-up
of this entire area. It has been
estimated that over 300,000 people
from this area have Appalachian roots
Allison
Raisor, Festival Chair
As a family entertainment
value, the Appalachian Festival is
hard to beat. For a very reasonable
price, the festival provides three
days of fun with non-stop old-timey
music, fantastic handcrafted gifts,
an authentic living history area
and the best down-home food this
side of the mountains
Allison Raisor,
Festival Chair
This year’s
festival salutes the brave men
and women of the coal mines because
mining is such an integral part
of the lives and culture of Appalachian
people
