Last week's question, "It's almost back to school time! How would you spend a last minute summer trip to Pigeon Forge?"
Katherine says, "I would definitely spend my back to school trip to Pigeon Forge shopping at the outlet mall and then cooling off by whitewater rafting or tubing the river in townsend. I also wouldn't mind checking out some of the new attractions, we loved the Titanic, now I want to see the Hatfield and McCoy show! We might just have to make a trip up there this weekend!"
Bill says, "We always take a trip to Pigeon Forge before my wife and kids have to go back to school. We like to spend a day at Dollywood and then just let the kids have fun riding go karts and playing games in Pigeon Forge. It's a great way to end the summer!"
