Banner Elk Chamber of Commerce After Hours|  We had the pleasure of hosting the Banner Elk Business After Hours event at our main office in Banner Elk.  A huge thank you to everyone that partnered with us to and to everyone who came out to make this event such a great success! 


A silent auction was held during the event to raise funds for the Watauga Habitat for Humanity's "Big Kahuna" fundraiser.  We can't thank everyone enough that donated to the silent auction and supported this great cause.  
Greetings!

Happy May everyone! I hope you are enjoying this warmer weather as much as I am!  Better weather means more time to go out and do things, but we sometimes forget about keeping our home life as organized as it could be. But don't worry!  I've put together some tasks that will help you get organized at home and ready for the upcoming summer season!

Home Electronics | Between cellphones, chargers, laptops and more, it's difficult to keep it all organized.  Spend an hour or two on wire management and you won't believe how much space you'll save without cords tangled everywhere. Bundle excess wires with a rubber band for extra storage space and organization. 

Wash Windows | What better way to welcome the summertime sunshine than by clearing all the dirt from the windows inside and out.  

Rug Refresh | You won't believe the difference a fresh carpet clean can make. Rent a carpet cleaner or have it professionally cleaned to refresh your carpets more than you normally would with just a regular vaccuum and spot cleaner. 
Hope this helps!  To conclude, here's a little dog wisdom:  “Always look up; there are treats beyond your wildest dreams waiting!"  Take care friends! 
BIG KAHUNA DON HODOWN
CELEBRATION | May 18

“People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.” – Dale Carnegie

Success is not always measured by winning, losing or accomplishing a task.  Sometimes, the best way to achieve success is to find ways to enjoy your life and your work.  By noting the little things you enjoy about what you do, doing the work no longer feels like 'work' and that in itself is the best way to achieve success.
Purple Heart Homes partners with local volunteers in the community with the intent of restoring dignity and 'quality of life' by creating a safe, barrier free living environment for Service Connected Disabled Veterans who currently own a home that no longer meets their physical needs. Renovations are provided at no cost to the Veteran. If you know of a local Veteran in need of assistance, please let us know. 
If you would like to donate, nominate a veteran, or volunteer, please email  [email protected]. Learn more at phhusa.org.
