Journey's End fundraiser

 

·        The Marquee Cinema will be raising money for Journey's End No-Kill Animal Society here at the theater starting Oct. 27th through Nov. 6th, during the opening of Puss In Boots, and you get a chance to win a prize package for your favorite furry friend. Bring in a jar with a hole cut into the lid. Attach a photo of your pet. Patrons of the theater will donate to Journey's End by putting their donations into the jar... that has their favorite photo. The owner of the photo with the most donations will win a prize and all money donated will go to Journey's End. We will start accepting the jars immediately but will not set them out until opening on Oct. 27th. I know a lot of my friends have pets and I would love to see each and every one of them do this. Bring your jars to Marquee Cinemas in Kingsport at the Kingsport Town Center (Fort Henry Mall) during business hours.

www.MoveToKingsport.com is located on the Tennessee-Virginia border at the crossroads of I-81 and I-26 near the geographic center of the Eastern U.S. This city of 50,000 in a metro of 308,000, was planned by renowned American planner John Nolen in his office at Harvard Square. Located in the lush green foothills of the Tennessee Valley, it is surrounded by the Southern Highlands and mountain lakes. Kingsport is home to Marriott’s www.MeadowViewResort.com and thousands of acres of unique, natural amenities at Bays Mountain and Warriors Path Parks. The natural geography provides a temperate, well-balanced climate with four seasons and a natural shelter from extreme weather. Population growth has also been well-balanced, ensuring you will not outgrow your decision to relocate. With no personal property taxes, special assessments, or state income taxes on salaries/wages, you’ll find that Kingsport has a very low cost of living coupled with an exceptionally high quality of life (see for yourself at www.BestPlaces.net). The regional airport (TRI) has direct flights to Atlanta, Charlotte, Orlando and St. Pete/Clearwater with easy access, parking, and virtually no security lines. The public education system was planned by Columbia University and Newsweek has repeatedly recognized the local high school as one of the best in America. Year in and year out our graduates go on to the top colleges and universities (and without costly private school tuition fees). Harvard also recognized Kingsport in 2009 with the Innovations in American Government Award for its higher education initiative. What are you waiting for? It’s time to leave the high costs, traffic jams, and stress behind and discover this hidden gem.
