By Sue Stivers, Executive Director
Columbia/Adair County Tourism Commission

The Columbia-Adair County Tourism Commission and the Heartland Waterways Tourism Corridor (composed of 6 counties . . . Adair, Cumberland, Green, Metcalfe, Monroe, and Taylor) has come up with a new project that costs no money. . . only a little bit of your time.

The Title is "Quilts on the Move." Everyone in the region is being asked to display a quilt on Friday, July 4th and Saturday, July 5th, in front of their homes, hung over a chair, on a clothes line, front of an automobile, over the front door or from a window.



Monroe County has been doing this for the past 3 or 4 years and people are enjoying just getting in their cars and taking a drive and enjoying the drive.

Business people in Adair County are encouraged to put a quilt in their window. Adiar County could have a completely new look over the 4th of July. - Sue Stivers, Executive Director, Columbia/Adair County Economic Development Commission
