PRESS RELEASE:
Headline: Fifth annual Hook, Line and Drinker Festival postponed until 2023

On Tuesday, March 1, the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce Executive Board made the difficult decision to postpone the fifth annual Hook, Line and Drinker Festival, scheduled for May 14, 2022. A date for the 2023 event will be announced later.
“Many of our vendors from the fishing, craft beer and outdoor recreation fields have expressed concern about attending this year’s event due to the ongoing national staffing shortage,” said Jackson County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Julie Donaldson. “We are still seeing a lot of our business community, county and region-wide, suffering from a lack of adequate staffing. We certainly understand and find it best to pump the brakes on this year’s event.”
All vendors who committed to the event will be reimbursed their entry fee.
For more information, contact the chamber at 828-586-2155 or stay tuned to the festival website at www.hooklinedrinkerfest.com or its page.

November was a great month for the organizers of the Hook, Line & Drinker Festival. First, our friends at Innovation Brewing made a generous donation from a portion of proceeds raised by selling the first-ever HLD festival-themed beer at last year's event. We cannot express enough gratitude to Chip and Nicole at our local brewery. Second- because of the success of last year's event, we were able to make donations to the Tuckaseigee Chapter #373 of Trout Unlimited for their "Trout in the Classroom" program, and another to the Jackson County Parks and Recreation Department for their "Kids Fishing Day" event. Thanks to everyone who supported us so we can support these fine programs. Mark your calendars for next year's event on May 14, 2022.
