Paying Heed to Small Towns

USA Today writes that 2010 will be a big year for Alabama’s small towns. http://bit.ly/dcpYk7 Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird, set in fictional Maycomb, turns 50. Talladega, home to the Superspeedway, turns 175. And America’s oldest ballpark, B’ham’s Rickwood Field, is turning 100. The Great Alabama Homecoming, http://www.alabamahomecoming.com/, will feature these landmarks and more in a tourism showcase of over 200 small towns and community events. Our own little Jacksonville, population 8,404, has a homecoming weekend planned for Sept. 24-26. Let us know if you’re coming. 🙂
