This event will be held with the help and support of the Canary Coalition, whose focus is our health and well being. For more information about us contact: www.canarycoalition.org

Help Fight Pollution in The Great Smokies! The Canary Coalition is your family, friends and neighbors getting together to do something about the poor quality of the air we've been breathing in western North Carolina and the southern Appalachian region. If you're like most western North Carolinians you love the mountains, its people and culture. You consider this region your home. A good place to live, work and play. A wonderful area to raise children, live a fruitful life and perhaps retire some day. But you're also becoming increasingly alarmed by the frequent air quality alerts you're hearing about on the news. It's hard to swallow the fact that what was once a precious commodity, our clean mountain air, is now being compared to the air over Los Angeles. Visibility has diminished in the Great Smokies from 60 miles to an average of 15 miles. Health concerns to trees, animals and humans are real and increasing.

"It was fitting that I made my Canary debut last week in West Virginia, the capital of King Coal. I was running the Snowflake 50K, a 31-mile trail race through the Blue Ridge mountains in the heart of coal country. The two-loop course followed old mining roads in Kanawha State Forest, not far from a coal factory that ranks fourth nationwide in toxic air releases." - Ultrarunner Will Harlan on winning first place in the Snowflake 50K.
