Featured Guest Speaker: Mayor Zeb Smathers
We are excited to welcome Mayor Zeb Smathers of Canton, NC, as our featured speaker.
Mayor Smathers has led Canton through both triumphs and hardships, including devastating floods and the recent closure of the town’s historic paper mill. Under his leadership, Canton has focused on sustainable economic development, living wages, environmental improvements, and expanded outdoor recreation opportunities — all while maintaining the town’s proud blue-collar roots.
Mayor Smathers represents the kind of forward-looking, inclusive leadership that will move Western North Carolina forward. You won’t want to miss his inspiring remarks!
🔵 Volunteers Needed!
If you can assist with setup, please volunteer — setup helpers are asked to arrive by 9:00 AM. You can sign up when you register!
Let’s come together to organize, energize, and prepare for victories ahead.
We’ll see you in Waynesville on May 10!
