Black Gold Shootout attracted over 300 tourists

by By Tim Parks-Tourism Director

Hello friends! I hope everyone is doing well. It’s been a super busy week here in Manchester. The Black Gold Shootout took over the whole week, and the crew at the Ponderosa Pines did a fine job hosting nearly 300 tourists. The campers started rolling in a week before the event even started. I thought it was also cool that they went to Pats one night and the Mexican restaurant one night to spread the love. They even had a local food truck set up on-site to help facilitate the process. The Huddle House always does well since it’s close to the venue. These things are all about creating an economic impact in the community; this one sure does a great job. Moving forward, we will focus on Manchester Music Fest and Shaping Clay Jubilee. Those are two big ones that are on the horizon. If you are reading this and haven’t attended one of our events, come check us out. We would love to have you! Much Love Manchester!
