Volunteers gathered Tuesday through Friday evenings to hold a telethon, calling local residents to fundraise for Tryon’s museum. Pictured are Susan McNabb, Linda Lee Reynolds, Nancy Hagan, Andy Millard and Kim Nelson. Anyone who did not receive a call and would like to donate to the museum can contact Happy McLeod at 828-283-1177 or HappyMcLeod9@gmail.com. (photo by Leah Justice)
