United Way of Greater Kingsport Healthy Lifestyles Expo

Hosted by the Crazy 8s Road Race and Fun Fest

July 17, 2010, 5pm till Midnight, J. Fred Johnson Stadium

The United Way of Greater Kingsport and the Crazy 8s Road Race will once again present the Healthy Lifestyles Expo during the Crazy 8s Road Race on July 17. This year the expo will move from inside J. Fred Johnson Stadium to an excellent location outside the stadium in order to put vendors in front of a bigger crowd on hand for the Crazy 8s Race. Race participants will pass through the expo in order to pick up their race packets. This is a great opportunity for local businesses and vendors to get their product and message out in front of thousands of people for a very reasonable price. The Crazy 8s Race attracts over 3,500 participants as well as thousands more spectators. Interested businesses should call or email soon to reserve their space. For more information about Crazy 8s, go to www.crazy8s.org

www.MoveToKingsport.com is located on the Tennessee-Virginia border at the crossroads of I-81 and I-26 near the geographic center of the Eastern U.S. This city of 50,000 in a metro of 308,000, was planned by renowned American planner John Nolen in his office at Harvard Square. Located in the lush green foothills of the Tennessee Valley, it is surrounded by the Southern Highlands and mountain lakes. Kingsport is home to Marriott’s www.MeadowViewResort.com and thousands of acres of unique, natural amenities at Bays Mountain and Warriors Path Parks. The natural geography provides a temperate, well-balanced climate with four seasons and a natural shelter from extreme weather. Population growth has also been well-balanced, ensuring you will not outgrow your decision to relocate. With no personal property taxes, special assessments, or state income taxes on salaries/wages, you’ll find that Kingsport has a very low cost of living coupled with an exceptionally high quality of life (see for yourself at www.BestPlaces.net). The regional airport (TRI) has direct flights to Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Detroit, Orlando and St. Pete/Clearwater with easy access, parking, and virtually no security lines. The public education system was planned by Columbia University and Newsweek has repeatedly recognized the local high school as one of the best in America. Year in and year out our graduates go on to the top colleges and universities (and without costly private school tuition fees). Harvard also recognized Kingsport in 2009 with the Innovations in American Government Award for its higher education initiative. What are you waiting for? It’s time to leave the high costs, traffic jams, and stress behind and discover this hidden gem.
