Putt-Putt’n for Education

Happy Camper — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 16:50:00 GMT

Team Mountain Rentals of Gatlinburg met at Old Gatlinburg Golf & Games for the 10th Annual Gatlinburg Chamber of Commerce Foundation Mini-Golf Tournament. The Tournament raises money for scholarships for graduating students and those seeking higher education in the Hospitality industry. The holes were tough and the competition was stiff, but our Team was determined to place in the Tournament. So after 36 holes of struggles and sizing up the competition they waited patiently for their names to be called, balloons to arrive and cheers from the crowd….. Place - they did WORST SCORE! We are so proud!

Happy Camper — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 10:38:00 GMT

Now is a great time for families to get out to the Smokies. The weather is divine and as always the mountains are breathtaking!
If you are looking for some great entertainment that won’t break the bank Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales™ will be running all summer in downtown Gatlinburg. This is FREE entertainment on the main strip where performers are dressed in costumes that depict different time periods and provide you with traditional mountain music, clogging, storytelling and much more. The performers arrive to different areas of the main strip in Gatlinburg by horse and carriage (which we are proud to help sponsor) and the entertainment is continuous from 5pm – 10pm each night.

I love this event because it adds such an amazing atmosphere to the streets of Gatlinburg. This is such a fun place and I feel that Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales™ event just adds extra excitement during the summertime.

Bears, Bears & More Bears!

Happy Camper — Fri, 18 May 2007 15:51:00 GMT

The Rotary Club of Gatlinburg held a Banquet and auction on May 10th to raise money for the Rotary. The Rotary Club of Gatlinburg is an asset to our community assisting in service projects, benefits for local charities, scholarships and providing assistance to those less fortunate in our community. Many area businesses participated, including Mountain Rentals of Gatlinburg, by purchasing a Bicentennial Bear to be auctioned and placed around various locations in our community.

The bicentennial bear was crafted by Kathy Teauge of Teauge’s Concrete Works. This blank canvas was the beginning of many beautiful bears to come! The area participating businesses enlisted local artists and members of the community to add character and charisma to these adorable creatures! The Rotary raised $15,000 and the most prized bear went for $1,400 (that was one charismatic bear).
We are looking forward to the Rotary Club of Gatlinburg continuing to flourish and help make our community a better place for all of our citizens.

Here are a few pictures of the Bears! Enjoy…

Let the Good Times Roll

Happy Camper — Tue, 10 Apr 2007 13:01:00 GMT

My favorite Gatlinburg event is just around the corner - the 6^th annual Ribfest and Wings!!! It is a day made for over eating, entertainment and for men to claim the title of “THE MAN” by not crying from the hottest sauce you have ever tasted (Death by Wings) or win the hot wing eating contest! I have noticed that the men seem to get an exceptional amount of dust in their eyes though? I’m just givin’ em’ a hard time.
This event has something for everyone - a $10.00 armband gets you a pass to free-for-all sampling or you can purchase wings and ribs individually, the bands are rockin’ with Marshall Tucker Band (Southern Rock) and The Beat Daddys (cool cats, soulful rock-n-roll blues) and the kids? They are covered too - face painting and balloon animals.
I highly recommend you make it to traffic light #3 (across from Hard Rock Café ) on Thursday, April 19^th from 4 – 9 PM. After the event ends enjoy some of Gatlinburg’s nightlife. If you need a cold one to get rid of the pain go to Hard Rock Café, TGI Friday’s or Crawdaddy’s and if you need to work off the food go dancing at Blaine’s Bar and Grill, but anywhere you go “Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!” ( Let the good times roll!)

Gatlinburg’s Chili Cookoff 2006

Happy Camper — Sun, 19 Nov 2006 22:18:00 GMT

Gatlinburg, TN, the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains, kicks off its 4 month long Winterfest season on Wednesday, November 8, 2006 with its 17^th annual Chili Cookoff, held at the Ripley’s Aquarium Plaza on River Road in downtown Gatlinburg. For just $7.00, you may sample all of the delicious chili you care to have from the 20 vendors on hand to tease your taste buds. Featuring chili from mild to wild, you don’t want to miss this tasty event.

Among this year’s participants hoping to win your vote for best taste, best booth presentation, best apron design, and most unique chili name are:

Americana Inn at the Gazebo, Brass Lantern Restaurant, Bullfish Grill, Bushido Security, Cherokee Grill, Citizens National Bank, Hard Rock Café, Gatlinburg Center Convention Operations, Gatlinburg Fire Dept., Gatlinburg Police Dept., Crawdaddy’s Restaurant & Bar, Fox & Parrot Tavern, LaCarreta’s, Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, TGI Fridays, and Westgate Resorts.

While eating your way from booth to booth, you’ll be entertained by three musical groups that will get you dancing in the streets! First, The Moonshine Boys will kickoff the event at 4:00 p.m. Then, back by popular demand, enjoy The Beat Daddys with their southern rockin’ blues and soulful attitude. Plus, the Marvellettes return this year to sing your pop soul favorites, such as “Please Mr. Postman.”

Later in the evening, the Winterfest Fireworks Celebration, sponsored by Americana Inn at the Gazebo and the Americana Inn on the Parkway, will wow you. You’ll also be right there to see the flipping of the switch, as all of Gatlinburg lights up with millions of Winterfest lights.

Plan to head on down for food & fun to the Ripley’s Aquarium Plaza from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 8, 2006. Proceeds will benefit the PTA of Gatlinburg’s local elementary school, Pi Beta Phi Elementary.
