In these times of uncertainty, pulling together as a community is crucial to the health, well-being and stability of our local friends and neighbors. Some communities need help more than ever. And although it may seem daunting at first, there are ways to lend support, funds or even a helping hand.

New Belgium’s Community Ambassador Mike Craft gives us info on the New Belgium Bar & Restaurant Relief Fund supporting food and beverage communities in their hometowns of Fort Collins, CO and Asheville, NC, who are in need of financial assistance due to the COVID-19 economic disruption.  Mike explains ways the company comes together to support the community and also provides info on One Buncombe, WNC for The Planet and the synchronized firefly experience in the Great Smoky Mountains. 

Also an update from Tina Kinsey, Director of Marketing, PR and Air Service Development at the Asheville Regional Airport. Tina describes how the airport is working diligently to keep the airport safe and operational during this uncertain time.
