Last Shot weekend was a great success

To the Editor:

Our Last Shot Fired May weekend, titled “The Battle of Waynesville and the Surrender of the Western NC Army” was a great success. The Shelton House wishes to thank all who turned out and all involved. We couldn’t have done it without you! Thanks in particular to The Smoky Mountain News and all the people and organizations for their generous participation in and support of our commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War in Haywood County.

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.
