Sevierville – The Sevierville Chamber of Commerce would like to thank everyone who helped make the recent TSSAA Golf State Championships at the Sevierville Golf Club such a success. One hundred seventy volunteers came together to make the weeklong event run smoothly as more than 400 high school golfers from around the state vied for the titles of State Champion.

 

The golfers’ coaches, families, and friends joined them to watch the tournament and enjoy all that Sevierville and the Smoky Mountains have to offer.

Most of Great Smoky Mountains tourist areas have full access to water in the wake of Hurricane Helen floods, but communities just east of Gatlinburg and in Cosby might not have water for weeks.

 

Webb Creek Utility District provides drinking water and other utility services to 580 customers in Cobbly Nob, Cosby and Pittman Center, including hotels and resorts that are all currently without water. The district’s only water supplier is Newport Utilities Board, which has suffered severe damage to its distribution system due to the flooding.

Sevier County spokesperson Tyler Basler, who could only authoritatively speak on conditions in the county, not in individual cities such as Sevierville and Gatlinburg, said there were no major issues on county roads.

 

Great Smoky Mountains National Park leaders earlier this week were asking visitors to reschedule trips to the park, citing safety and staffing concerns. Some smaller roads and areas of the park were still closed as of Oct. 1, but U.S. 441/Newfound Gap Road, the major road through the park, is scheduled to reopen by 8 a.m. Oct. 2.
