It’s hard to believe, but summer is almost over, school is in full swing and Labor Day is right around the corner.
Where did summer go? For the Tellico Village Property Owners Association recreation department, it went by with three weeks of Camp Tellico, swim team practices and meets, summer swimming lessons and the addition of a half-mile walking path around the Wellness Center.
As some of us hate to see summer leave, fall is right around the corner. It’s time for football games, cooler weather and fitness.
Now’s the perfect time to come check out the walking track, watch a football game while riding a bike in the exercise room or attend one of our monthly seminars.
The Wellness Center and Chota Recreation Center will be open for limited hours Sept. 7. The Wellness Center will be open 6 a.m.-6 p.m., and Chota will be open 8 a.m.-6 p.m. For hours of operation at Kahite Activity Center, call 423-884-6108 or 865-458-2639.
