Back by Popular Demand --The Dancing Bear Bike Bash has been re-named the Townsend Bike Bash to reflect the growing popularity of biking in our beautiful mountain area. Dancing Bear remains the presenting sponsor along with Cycology Bike Shop plus there are three new supporting sponsors who have joined including Dogwood Cabins, Big Meadows Campground, and Apple Valley Country Stores in Townsend. The ride is benefitting the Townsend Walland Business Association. A portion of each registration will go to support more Biking and more events in Townsend, TN on the Peaceful Side of the Smokies! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Each registration includes your choice of a 30 mile or 50 mile fully supported ride with turn by turn directions. There will be two rest stops and a lead and a "sweep" rider. Each registrant will receive a free tee shirt (please let us know your size) and a complimentary catered lunch at the completion of the ride. Because the new Dancing Bear restaurant is still under construction, the lunch will be catered out of the Apple Valley cafe and will be served on the lawn in the grounds at the base of US 321 between Apple Valley and Dancing Bear.</div>

the unseasonably warm spring, the synchronized fireflies found in
Elkmont at Great Smoky Mountains National Park are presenting earlier
than ever recorded according to park officials. The shuttle service to
the event site is still scheduled to take place from June 2-10 for
ticketed reservation holders only. Park biologists are predicting that
there may still be some activity during the weekend of June 2nd, but the
display will be past peak and may taper off significantly well before
the following weekend. Those with reservations are being advised of the
possibility that the display will not be as good as in previous years.<br />
<br />
This
early showing has prompted the Park to close the Elkmont entrance road
to motor vehicles and pedestrian use every evening from Wednesday, May
30-Sunday, June 10. Only registered campers staying at the Elkmont
Campground will be allowed to access the road.<br />
<br />
The Park
had set aside 25 parking passes aside to make available the day before
the event though www.recreation.gov. These passes may be withdrawn
depending on the activity of the fireflies. Please visit
www.recreation.gov for current status on these passes.<br />
<br />
The
popularity of the annual firefly event has made it necessary to close
access to the Elkmont viewing area to protect park resources and visitor
experiences. This closure requires the availability and coordination of
a large number of park staff and the shuttle service provider. The
event is generally scheduled based on the recorded timing of firefly
appearances in the past years, but Spring 2012 was uncharacteristically
warm and made it difficult to accurately predict well in advance. Due to
the logistics involved, the Park does not have the flexibility to
switch the event operations forward or backwards to match the peak
firefly activity.<br />
<br />

<br />
Since 1996, ABR has been helping orphaned and injured bear cubs grow until they can be released back into the forest. Their mission is three fold. 1.) To educate the public about black bears and the regional threats facing them; 2.) To rehabilitate orphaned and injured bears for release to the wild; and 3.) To research bear attributes which may help solve other environmental or health issues.<br />
<br />
Please come and take advantage of this opportuntiy to support, donate and help such a worthy cause!<br />
