I have found the first series of these sessions to be extremely informative and would suggest them to any business that is looking for sound advice and training on the uses of Social Media as a marketing tool. Great folks teaching the class and you will have some fun at the same time.

Saw a very interesting post on http://booneweather.com/Forecast/Boone about the snowfall records for Boone since 1920. Giving complete credit for this to Dr. Ray Russell, here is what the fine folks at Ray’s Weather Center have reported:
“This winter has been the snowiest on record through February 14. The table below shows the 10 snowiest winters through February 14 in Boone NC. Notably missing is the winter of 1959-60 when the winter total in Boone was 104″–most of the snow that year fell between mid February and mid March. Weather data for Boone goes back to the 1920s.
Year Total Snow/Ice
2010 61.9″
1996 55.5″
1983 49.0″
1977 44.0″
1964 42.5″
1955 42.1″
1969 40.0″
1970 39.8″
1987 39.0″
1931 38.2″

Wow! no wonder it has been weeks since I have seen some green grass…. so as a parent to a student in Elementary School in Watauga County… this winter has been equally as harsh.. Missed school or shorted days since January 4th (my own unofficial calculations):
Jan. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (snow days); Jan 12 (snow day); Jan 16 (Saturday School to recover one day); Jan 21 (early release), 22 (snow day); Jan 25 (1 hr delay), 26 (2 hr delay) and 27 (snow day); Jan 29 (early release)
Feb 1, 2, 3 (snow days); Feb 5 (snow day); Feb 8 (2 hr delay); Feb 10, 11, 12 (snow days); Feb 15 & 16 (snow day)
So I think that the ole time stories of “I walked up hill to school in the snow – both ways” beats trying to navigate Watauga County with a school bus. I sure hope that this weather pattern breaks and we do not break any more records, giving Dr. Russell more reasons to do weather research, so we can begin to live our lives outside of the snow globe.
On the flip side.. the skiing is great with a lot of natural snow! Come see us.

You may think that this title is driven by our harsh Winter in the High Country, but nope! I’m speaking of college athletic seasons. National Signing day is behind us and both universities and fans are taking a look at the new recruits, or some cases, the vacancies that had not really been filled. College Basketball is in full swing and the typical powers, are less then expected… but… We are just a couple of weeks from the first pitch.. Yes, College Baseball. To me, College Baseball remains one of the purest revenue generating sports left in the NCAA.
Appalachian Baseball has its home opener one month from TODAY! Friday, March 5th. Check out the schedule and come see the new ball park which is located adjacent to the Broyhill Inn. http://www.goasu.com/SportSelect.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=21500&KEY=&SPID=12821&SPSID=104512

Go Mountaineers!
