I found a really interesting article about Jerry Henry, Corporate Director of Research for HFE.  It discusses HFE's view of tourism and its trends, addressing the tourist numbers for this year and where they think tourism trends are headed in the future.  Here's the link:

There's a really interesting article on the history of Stone Mountain (including HFE's Stone Mountain Park) on the Delco Times website.  Check it out here:

HFE has announced their management promotions and they are interesting.  Here are their three major promotions:

--Jane Cooper promoted to President, HFE Attractions
--Ken Bell named President of The Dollywood Company
--Brad Thomas promoted to Senior Vice President of Silver Dollar City Attractions

In the article it gives a brief summary of their new duties as well as a brief bio for each person.  I think these promotions will have an impact on the direction of HFE's attractions (especially DW and SDC) in the next five years or so.  Anyone have any thoughts?  Here's the link to the article:
