What do you really know about Haywood County?

I was out at the Delta Heritage Center this week. And every time I go in there I can’t help but wonder how many local people have never set foot inside. The Cotton Museum, Music Museum and Hatchie River Museum are all something to see. Not to mention the exhibits and info about surrounding counties that I bet you didn’t know. Did you know that there are actually seven museums in Brownsville?

The same holds true for the Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge. How many have not taken the time to ride through the refuge. It is something every Haywood Countian should do at least once. Trust me, you do not have to be a hunter or fisherman to appreciate the beauty of our wildlife refuge. What about Oneal Lake? Have you been there and taken a drive around the lake? Have you seen the eagles. Yes, eagles. I bet you thought you had to drive to Reelfoot to see eagles in West Tennessee. Not true. We have a couple who have taken up residence here. And if all goes well, according to Refuge Manager Mike Chouinard, we may have little ones sometime within the next year or so.

I know there are endless thing in our community that I don't know about. And all of this has me wondering what really peaks your interest? Are there people or places in our county that you what to learn more about?

Please leave your comments and let me know what those people, places and things are.
