Cashiers Mountain Music Festival

The Cashiers Mountain Music Festival is once again reving up for the 2nd and 3rd of July. It has quickly become one of the Premier Music Festivals of the southeast. It is a family and community oriented event put on by the Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce for the benefit of the Cashiers Preservation Foundation. The foundation is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to music education for local area youth. Proceeds from the festival will flow directly to the foundation which focuses on music education for our local area youth.

The festival will feature some great artist including The Steep Canyon Rangers who have Steve Martin ( A wild and crazy guy ) playing the banjo with them sometimes now.  We can hope he will be playing with them for the festival. Also, featured artist will be Lizzy Long and Little Ray Lewis who had Earl Scruggs with them as a suprise guest at last years Festival.

Many other featured artist will also be performing including The High Windy Band, The Rye Hollar Boys, The Wild Hog Band, Katelyn Marks and Jackson County's own Hurricane Creek.

Also being featured is Sweet Carolina who is only 12, but has already realeased two CD's and has played with Pat Benetar and Cheryl Crow.

There will also be a fabulous Firework Display, great food, a car show and vendor's area.

Yesterday I was lucky enough to volunteer for the Highlands/Cashiers Homebuilders Semi-Annual Golf Tournament. It took place at the beautiful Golf and Lake Country Club, Trillium, located in Cashiers NC.

Trillium is a private community nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, offers a stunning blend of mountain, lake and golf course living. Trillium offers so much to the homeowner including homes located on 1,435-acre Lake Glenville — the largest and highest lake with altitudes of 3,500 feet. A championship mountain golf course stretches upwards of 4,000 feet, combining dramatic scenery and a challenging round of golf. And, the Blue Ridge mountains soar above it all, providing a stunning backdrop to living at Trillium.

Trillium is located just a few miles from downtown Cashiers and offers lake and golf homes and homesites including townhomes. Prices for townhomes start around $450,000 and Homes are usually in the 1-4 Million Dollar Range. The private golf is one of the  most reasonable in the area with a $50,000. membership fee.
The community offers a lake club with pier and boat docks available. Every year they do a fabulous 4th of July event with a beautiful fireworks display over Lake Glenville. They also are host to weddings.

There were many prizes for the Golf Tournament including Trips to Trump Towers in Atlantic City and a $10,000 price for a hole in one.

The scenery was spectacular and the weather was picture perfect. Everyone had a great time. After the tournament there a barbecue dinner and awards banquet. Special thanks should be given to the Trillium staff, Charlotte Moore of Hattler Properties and Suzanne Moore president of the Highland/Cashiers Homebuilders asso and local builder.

When you visit Cashiers be sure to let me tour you through the Trillium Community. About 65% of the homeowners are from Atlanta, Charlotte and Naples Florida.
