Walk the Walk
from Little Cedar Mountain
to Jasper, the Marion County seat
home of the Jasper Chamber of Commerce which wants TVA to open its 660 acres of
prime federal lake-front property to Hine Interests, Limited Partnership out of
Houston, Texas, so that Hines can put in a big 120-room hotel resort & conference
center, big marina with 300 boat slips, 18-hole golf course, 500 condominiums
units, which will destroy the beauty integrity and cultural heritage of Little
Cedar Mountain.
Little Cedar Mountain is one of the home grounds of Dragging Canoe, last of the
great Cherokee war chiefs who fought to save this land from development. His own
town, Running Water (now called 'Whiteside'), is just a mile upriver, and another
of his "Lower Towns," Nickajack, is right across the river.
Walk to Save Dragging Canoe's Little Cedar Mountain.
Protest TVAÕs land sale for private development.
