MaconSense to speak on steep slopes

MaconSense, a non-partisan organization promoting civic engagement and community service projects, will present a program at 12 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 13, at the Tartan Hall in Franklin. The program is sponsored by the Macon County League of Women Voters.

The goal is to give everyday people a voice in where the county is heading, free from political posturing and heated rhetoric. Their first campaign is for safe slope development and promotion of commonsense regulation. Group organizers Michael Jackson and Kathy Tinsley will speak.

Lunch is available by reservation. For more information, call 828.371.0527 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.

The Smoky Mountain News is a wholly private corporation. Reader contributions support the journalistic mission of SMN to remain independent. Your support of SMN does not constitute a charitable donation. If you have a question about contributing to SMN, please contact us.
