Mike Curcio is in his 18th year as the head men’s and women’s cross country coach, track and � eld distance coach at Appalachian State University. Curcio is very familiar with the Southern Conference as he has been directly involved with Appalachian athletics for over 22 years. In his four years as a student-athlete he was a member of eight SoCon championship title teams and has been a member of 50 SoCon Championship title teams since the beginning of his coaching tenure 18 years ago. The 2012 campaign was a banner year for the Mountaineers’ middle-distance/distance runners on the track as Curcio helped coach three athletes who broke � ve school records. Will Raby set the school record for the 5000-meter event in indoor track, while Alex Taylor and Chris Moen teamed up with two sprinters to set the school record in the distance medley relay for indoor track at the SoCon Champi-onships. Taylor set the App State record in the 800 and 1500-meter events while teaming up with Moen and two of Appalachian’s sprinters to break a 28-year old ASU record in the distance medley relay at the 2012 Penn Relays. Curcio coached four men to the � rst round of the NCAA Championships in 2012 in outdoor track, as Taylor quali� ed for both the 800 and 1,500-meter events and Moen, Sean Soderman and Josh Cox all quali� ed for the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Curcio’s cross country teams have been very successful under his tenure, as they have captured 10 women’s Southern Conference titles and 15 men’s SoCon championships, including six-straight men’s titles from 2005-10. In 2012, Curcio coached both the men’s and women’s cross country teams to SoCon titles, while being named coach of the year for both men’s and women’s cross country. During his time at App State, Curcio has coached nine NCAA Quali� ers, 16 NCAA Regional Quali� ers, 19 USATF Junior National Quali� ers and seven Southern Confer-ence Cross Country Freshman of the Year. In addition to those feats, Curcio has also coached 90 all-Southern Conference Cross Country performers and four Southern Conference Cross Country individual champions.

While coaching the distance runners for App State track and � eld, Curcio has coached 59 athletes to SoCon indoor and outdoor individual champion performanc-es and 203 runners to all-conference indoor and outdoor performances. He has also coached two athletes to SoCon indoor track and � eld MVP awards and two outdoor track and � eld MVP awards. As athletic excellence is important, Curcio and his teams also strive for success in academics. Since being at App State, Curcio has coached two NCAA post gradu-ate scholarship award winners, one Southern Conference post graduate scholar-ship award winner, three Mrs. Brake� eld award recipients, for an App State senior student-athlete with the highest GPA, and 12 USTFCCCA academic all-Americans. During the 2011-12 season, both the App State men’s and women’s recorded multi-year APR scores well above the national average while the men were recog-nized with an NCAA Public Recognition Award for compiling a four-year APR of 1,000 and ranking among the top 10 percent of all teams in the nation. For all of his e� orts, in 2003 Curcio was named the USTCA Division I Men’s National Assistant Coach of the Year for Distance. He also has been recognized by the Southern Conference for his team’s impressive performances, being named the SoCon’s men’s cross country coach of the year ten times. Before coming to Appalachian, Curcio served as an assistant at Florida Statefrom 1988-1992. In the spring of 1993, he became an assistant at South Florida, where he helped build a � edgling track and � eld program, along with a nationally-ranked cross coun-try program. The track women at USF won three conference titles in the � rst four years of the program’s existence. The men’s and women’s cross country teams were ranked as high as 12th and 21st in Division I during his tenure. Curcio hails from Long Island, N.Y. where he attended New� eld High School be-fore attending and competing for Appalachian State University. He was a three-time all-SoCon selection in track and still ranks seventh all-time in the 1,500 meter run with a time of 3:49.60.

Appalachian State comes o� a great 2011-12 season as it won its second straight Southern Conference indoor title and clinched an outdoor championship. Head coach John Weaver enters his 31st season at the helm of the Appalachian State women’s track and cross country coach and his 17th season as the director of both men and women’s programs.

SPRINTS The Mountaineers return the junior duo of Breanna Alston and Breahna Morrison. Alston is the reigning 200m SoCon champion after running a 24.31 at the indoor champion-ships last season, ranking her second all-time at App State, while Morrison ranks eighth all-time in the 400m after posting a personal best 56.58 at the Appalachian Open. The juniors had a record-breaking sopho-more season as they helped lead the 4x400 meter indoor relay team at the Penn Relays and 4x400 meter outdoor relay team to an Appala-chian record at the Wake Forest Invitational. Appalachian will return three-of-four run-ners from the 2012 record-breaking 4x400m relay team, which included Breanna Alston, Breahna Morrison and Shenita Martin.

MIDDLE DISTANCE Senior Shenita Martin paces the Apps in middle distance as she � nished second in the 300m at the Appalachian Indoor Open, ranking her ninth all-time for the Black and Gold. Mar-tin clinched a � rst place victory in the 400m at the Appalachian Outdoor Open and earned all-SoCon honors after a � rst place � nish in the 4x100m relay at the SoCon Indoor Champion-ships Senior D’Shawrna McLucas looks to close out her senior campaign adding depth to both the sprinters and middle distance runners. The Fayeteville, N.C. native ranks eighth all-time in the indoor 200m and sixth all-time in the 200m outdoor after garnering all-SoCon honors with a third place � nish.

DISTANCE Appalachian’s Amanda Hamilton anchors the distance runners as she wrote herself into the record books in three di� erent events in the 2012 campaign. Hamilton currently ranks sec-ond in both the 3,000m event and the 5,000m event and falls � fth in the one-mile event. The Cary, N.C. native capped o� her senior season on the cross country team as she led the Apps in ev-ery meet and earned all-SoCon � rst team honors after a � fth place � nish at the SoCon Champion-ships. Senior Sarah Williamson will also lead the Apps in the distance runs as she currently ranks fourth in the 5,000m indoor run and the 10,000m outdoor run behind Hamilton. Junior Allison Cook adds depth to the distance runners as she helped the distance medley team to a fourth place � nish at the SoCon Indoor Championships last season and ranks third all-time for the Black and Gold in the 3,000m steeplechase. Sophomore Justine Stocks will round out the distance runners as she was a member of the distance medley team last season and posted a personal-best 2:16.29 in the 800m at the NCAA Preliminary trials in the outdoor season.

HURDLES Shenita Martin looks to be a leader for the Mountaineers for the hurdles as she garnered all-SoCon honors at the SoCon Outdoor Champi-onships in the 400m hurdles after a career-best 1:01.27, which ranks her sixth all-time in Appala-chian history. Martin clinched a � rst place � nish in the 400m hurdles at the Appalachian Open and claimed a second place � nish at the Coastal Carolina Invitational in the outdoor season.

THROWS In throwing events, the Black and Gold return Gayshawna Watkins who was named Field Athlete of the Week after her performance at the Sykes-Sabock Challenge Cup and Most Outstanding Performer at the SoCon Champion-ships. Watkins ranks second all-time in the shot put and sixth in the weight throw. The Moores-boro, N.C. native is the reigning Southern Con-

ference indoor champion in the weight throw and ranks fourth all-time in the hammer throw and ninth in the javelin for outdoor competition. Top performers Jasmine Suydam and Ana DeLeon returns after outstanding performances as underclassmen. Suydam � nished her fresh-man season earning three all-SoCon honors and writing herself into the record book one time. The Charlotte, N.C. native ranks ninth all-time in the shot put after her freshman campaign, while DeLeon ranks ninth all-time in the 20lb weight throw after her sophomore season

JUMPS Appalachian will have good depth in the jumping category for the 2012-13 campaign as it returns four all-conference performers from last season. Pole-vaulters Cassie Crawford and Chel-sea Farr look to lead the Apps as they both earned all-SoCon honors in both the indoor and outdoor seasons. Farr claimed the second spot in the App State record book at the Penn State relays as a freshman and Crawford ranks third all-time and quali� ed for the NCAA East Prelimi-nary last season. App State also returns Mary Theresa Mont-gomery who garnered all-SoCon honors after a three-way tie for third in the high jump.

Appalachian State University men’s indoor track and � eld is set to kicko� its 2012-13 season after coming o� a successful 2011-12 campaign. The Mountaineers look to regain the title of Southern Conference champions after a devastating half-point loss to Western Carolina last indoor season and claiming its third straight outdoor championship. Head coach John Weaver enters his 31st sea-son at the helm of Appalachian State University women’s cross country and track coach and his 17th season as the director of both the men and women’s cross country and track teams.

SPRINTS The Mountaineers return top two sprint-ers Landon Powell and Justin Thomas to the 2012-13 roster. Powell comes back for his senior season after writing himself into the record book, running a 34.75 in the 300m dash at the Appalachian Split Open, which ranks second in indoor App State history and fourth all-time in the outdoor 100m dash. The Lexington, N.C. native helped lead both the 4x100m relay team and the distance medley team to Appalachian State records last season. The distance medley team broke a 28-year school record at the Penn State Relays and returns the entire team, which includes, Alex Taylor, Landon Powell, Raphael Rojas and Chris Moen.

Thomas helped to lead the 4x100m team in the outdoor season as they � nished � rst at the Southern Conference championships and gar-nered all-SoCon honors. The team quali� ed for the NCAA Division I Championships where they broke the App State record.

HURDLES Appalachian will boast a young team in the hurdles after su� ering the loss of standout AJ Dohanic. Sophomore Stanley Broaden had a standout freshman performance as he earned two all-SoCon honors and is ranked sixth all-time in the 60m hurdles after his performance at the SoCon Indoor Championships. The Wilm-ington, N.C. native earned all-SoCon honors in the outdoor season after a third place � nish in the 400m hurdles and running a personal best 54.42.

MIDDLE DISTANCE The Black and Gold will see leadership from the senior duo of Alex Taylor and Chris Moen. Taylor claimed both the 800m and 1,500m re-cords in the 2012 outdoor season after breaking 28-year old records in both events and earned four all-SoCon honors last season. The senior quali� ed for the NCAA Division 1 East Prelimi-naries in both the 800m and 1,500m runs. The Charlotte, N.C. native also holds the indoor record for the dual medley relay after running a 10:00.90 at the SoCon records and breaking a 28-year old record. The team will return all four runners, which included: Chris Moen, David Riddleberger, Raphael Rojas and Alex Taylor. Moen returns to the App roster for his senior season as he earned � ve all-SoCon honors last season and ranks in � ve di� erent categories in the App State record books. The senior helped both the dual medley relay team and the distance medley relay team to school records and quali� ed for the NCAA Division I East Preliminaries in the outdoor season for the 3,000m steeplechase.

DISTANCE Junior Will Raby anchors the distance squad after breaking the 5,000m record at the SoCon Championships held by Chris Moen and former teammate Sean Soderman. Raby ranks third all-time in the 3,000m run and earned all-SoCon honors in the 5,000m run. Senior Nick Kelly returns for a � fth year after not competing in the 2011-12 campaign, while senior Michael Lilley comes o� an outstanding senior season on the cross country team. Lilley helped lead the Apps to a Southern Conference championship and earned second team all-SoCon honors. Junior Josh Cox will also add depth to the distance team, as he was a top performer for the 3,000m steeplechase � nishing second at the SoCon Championships and earning all-SoCon honors. The Mooresville, N.C. native quali� ed for the NCAA East Preliminary for the steeplechase and ranks sixth all-time for App State.

THROWS The Mountaineers will look to continue their winning ways in throwing as they return seniors Zane Lail and Jared Stalling. Lail competed in the SoCon Championships in the shot put and the discus, � nishing ninth and � fth, respectively. Stalling had a key season for the Apps as well as he won the shot put title at the SoCon Champion-ships and ranks third all-time for App State. Stall-ing also currently hold the school indoor record for the 35lb weight throw for his performance at the SoCon Indoor Championships where he � n-ished second. The Greensboro, N.C. native earned all-SoCon honors in the outdoor season for the hammer throw and ranks � fth all time for App State after throw 58.52m at the championships, qualifying him for the NCAA East Preliminaries in both the discus and hammer throw,

JUMPS Junior Jamal Tiller returns for the Apps this season after qualifying for the NCAA East Preliminaries in the triple jump. Tiller earned two all-SoCon honors last season and put up two � rst place � nishes in the triple jump last season. Sophomore Daryl Saunders who played an important role for Appalachian last season joins Tiller for the jumpers. Saunders returns after a key freshman season as a high jumper for the Moun-taineers where he had a personal-best 2.18m jump at the Dick Taylor Invitational and ranks second all-time behind former teammate Darius Purcell. Sophomore Jacob Stowe leads the pole-vaulters as he � nished � fth at the SoCon Outdoor Championships and ranks sixth all-time after his performance at Beaches vs. Mountains. Sopho-mores Ian Paran and Alex Lomax will also add depth for the Apps in the pole-vault.

HOLMES CONVOCATION CENTER KIDD BREWER STADIUM

VARSITY GYM

Standing on Rivers Street at Appalachian State University, the 200,840-square foot Holmes Center serves as the cornerstone to the entry to campus and houses ASU’s Department of Health, Leisure and Exercise Science as well as the home of indoor track & � eld, men’s & women’s basketball and volleyball. The structure also includes the 8,325-seat Seby Jones Arena, which hosts a number of community and cultural events in addition to Appalachian athletics, including graduation and convocation ceremonies, trade shows and concerts. The facility opened on November 17, 2000 with a celebration followed by a men’s basketball contest between Appalachian and the University of North Carolina. With much anticipation, every seat for the ASU-UNC showdown was sold in advance, marking the � rst pre-gameday sellout in school history for any sporting event.

The athletics ticket o� ce sold the full allotment of tickets for the inaugural contest at the Holmes Center in just 12 minutes. In addition to the state-of-the-art amenities that the Holmes Center has to o� er, the atmosphere for Appalachian sporting events remains one of the most spirited in the Southern Conference. The Appalachian student section is a priority at the Holmes Center, as student seating is located at mid-court for both volleyball and basketball. Public service, a cornerstone upon which Appalachian was founded, is the hallmark of the two individuals whom names adorn the university’s convocation center, as former ASU Chancellor, Francis T. Borkowski announced that the center would be called the George M. Holmes Convocation Center and its arena the Seby Jones Arena on March 20, 1999. Holmes was a Republican member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, representing the 92nd district (Surry, Iredell and Yadkin counties). He was the senior co-chair of the North Carolina House of Appropriations Committee. A native of Mount Airy, N.C., Holmes attended Appalachian on a football scholarship from 1950-57.

The outdoor home of the Appalachian track and � eld team, Kidd Brewer Stadium stands 3,333 feet above sea level and seats 16,650. Also home to the football and � eld hockey teams, it was the � rst facil-ity in either North or South Carolina to install arti� cial turf, with Ap-palachian and Elon staging the � rst football game on fake grass in the Carolinas, Oct. 3, 1970. Opened Sept. 15, 1962, the stadium was originally construct-ed with 10,000 permanent seats. Seating capacity was expanded to 18,000 following the 1978 season. Completion of an extensive reno-vation and restoration project on the original 10,000 seats in 1995 readjusted the seating capacity to 16,650. A multi-purpose facility, Kidd Brewer Stadium is also home to intramural sports, while classes and the community use the facility, as well. Owens Field House, at the north end of the stadium, houses athletic and fundraising o� ces, locker rooms and equipment areas, along with the Dr. Hugh S. Daniel Conference Room. In 1989, a new building was added adjacent to the � eld house, with athletic and coaching o� ces, the Dr. Evan Ashby Sports Medicine Room, strength and conditioning areas, and locker rooms. The stadium is also in the midst of renovations to add a new athletic complex, slated to be completed by the fall of 2009. An addi-tion of 4,000 seats on the east side was completed in the summer of 2008. The stadium is named after Kidd Brewer, one of the Mountain-eers’ most successful head football coaches, and a colorful part of North Carolina history. Brewer, a Winston-Salem, N.C., native, served as football coach of the Mountaineers for four seasons (1935-38), compiling a 30-5-3 overall mark. An all-American back� eld star at Duke University, Brew-er’s 1937 Appalachian squad was unbeaten and unscored upon in the regular season. After leaving Appalachian, Brewer started a sales career, but shortly thereafter reported for active duty in World War II. He served as a Naval lieutenant in the Paci� c. After the war Brewer was secre-tary to U.S. Sen. Josiah W. Bailey (D-N.C.). Upon Bailey’s death in o� ce Brewer served his replacement, Sen. William B. Umstead, as adminis-trative assistant. Brewer returned to North Carolina and ran for lieutenant gover-nor in 1956. Between campaigns for governor (1964) and state court of appeals (1968), he made a name for himself as a developer, insur-ance salesman and philanthropist. Kidd Brewer Stadium, dedicated Sept. 3, 1988, was named Con-rad Stadium from 1962 to 1988 for William J. Conrad, a former Appala-chian State University trustee and R.J. Reynolds executive.

During both the indoor and outdoor seasons, the track and � eld teams are able to escape the elements with an expansive practice facility in Varsity Gym. A new Mondo track surface was added in 2007 with a length of over 100 meters. Along with the track surface, the facility houses a shot put and weight throwing area, pole vault and high jump facilities, a full weight-lifting area and athletic training facilities. Varsity Gym’s � oor also received a facelift in 2008, as a new hardwood surface was installed. The arena is the practice home for wrestling, men’s and women’s basket-ball, volleyball and � eld hockey.

In his seven years at Appalachian State University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has led the department to unparalleled success.

The many achievements enjoyed by Appalachian athletics during Cobb’s tenure include:

• Three NCAA Division I football national championships — marking the fi rst time that any program has ever won three-consecutive NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Division I-AA) titles and the � rst NCAA football championships ever won by a team from the state of North Carolina at any level.• Shattering football attendance records at Kidd Brewer Stadium with crowds surpassing “The Rock’s” permanent seating capacity for each of ASU’s 40 regular-season home games since Cobb’s arrival in 2005.• A 298-percent increase in football season-ticket sales.• Seven-consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships — recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the Southern Conference.• Three Germann Cup championships — recognizing the top overall women’s sports program in the SoCon.• Thirty-fi ve percent of the athletics department’s students making the Academic Honor Roll (minimum GPA of 3.25).• Seven of 20 varsity programs (football, men’s basketball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, � eld hockey, women’s indoor and outdoor track and � eld) earning public recognition awards, based on being among the nation’s top 10 percent in their respective sports based on Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. • The Yosef Club, which provides scholarship and facility support for student-athletes, setting fundraising records each of the past seven years. Despite the state of the economy, the Yosef Club has reached the $2 million threshold for donations � ve years in a row. The record $2.72 million raised by the Yosef Club in 2011-12 is over $2 million more than Appalachian State athletics ever raised in any year prior to Cobb’s arrival. • Appalachian’s athletics annual budget increasing from $7.5 million in Cobb’s fi rst year to nearly $14.5 million in 2012-13.

The most visible of Cobb’s many achievements has been the addition of � rst-class facilities that will give Appalachian State the opportunity to be successful across the athletics spectrum for years to come.

A wave of facility enhancements totaling $50 million were completed in 2009, headlined by the 120,000-square-foot Appalachian Athletics Center. The seven-story complex, located behind Kidd Brewer Stadium’s west stands, includes new football o� ces and locker room, a strength and condi-tioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all ASU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 luxury suites.

The facility enhancements also included other signi� cant renovations to The Rock. A new ticket plaza, which serves as a grand entrance to the stadium, as well as ornamental fencing that replaced the chain-link barriers that used to surround the stadium and � eld were completed before the 2007 season, while a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and substantial upgrades to the east and south concourses were completed prior to the ‘08 campaign.

In addition to the renovations at Kidd Brewer Stadium, the campaign also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball (Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium), softball (Sywassink/Lloyd Family Stadium) and soccer (at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex), as well as the Apps’ � rst-ever indoor practice facility (So� eld Family Indoor Practice Facility) and renovations to Varsity Gym that have upgraded the facility to a premier practice and competition venue for ASU basketball, indoor track and � eld, volleyball and wrestling.

With the $50 million in facilities enhancements, all 20 of Appalachian’s intercollegiate sports teams now practice and compete in facilities that have either been built or renovated since the turn of the millenium.

While Cobb is quick to point out the “total team e� ort” put forth to achieve the many successes that have been enjoyed since he began his tenure as ASU’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 44-year-old Cobb that has steered the Mountaineers to new heights.

Cobb’s peers recognized him for his e� orts when the National Collegiate Athletics Directors Associa-tion (NACDA) named him the NCAA Division I FCS Southeast Region Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year in 2011.

He also serves on numerous NCAA and Southern Conference committees, most nota-bly the NCAA Division I Football committee that he currently chairs.

Prior to his arrival in Boone, Cobb was a member of the athletics department at North Carolina State University from 1998-2005. A four-year football letterwinner at NC State from 1987-90, Cobb served as the Wolfpack’s senior associate athletics director for external operations for the seven years prior to his arrival in Boone. In that role, he oversaw NC State’s marketing, ticket operations, media relations and student-athlete development operations, as well as serving on the department’s compact strategic planning initiative, gender equity and facilities committees.

During his tenure, NC State increased football season-ticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. The combined ticket revenues accounted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more than $6 million for the department.

In addition, Cobb served as NC State’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCAA men’s basketball � rst and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the southeast region of the NCAA women’s soccer committee.

Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in Atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. As an assistant executive director for the Atlanta Sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate Atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCAA men’s basket-ball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl.

As sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the Southeastern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCAA men’s basketball champion-ship events, Georgia High School Association football playo� s, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events.

Cobb graduated with honors with a B.A. in business administration from NC State in 1990. A second-team all-ACC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-ACC selection and collected the prestigious Jim Tatum Award, presented to the ACC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship.

After receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the ACC and NFL Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992.

Cobb is married to the former Lindsay Brecher, who was an all-ACC goalkeeper for NCSU women’s soccer from 1988-90 and serves as an assistant coach for Appalachian’s women’s soccer program. The Cobbs have a 14-year-old son, Harrison, and an 11-year-old daughter, Branan.

Boone lies in a small valley in the heart of the Southern Appalachians. It is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the Town of Boone incorporated in 1872.

Among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic Adventure magazine’s “Best Places to Live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best Small Towns in America,” USA Today’s “10 Great Small Towns with Huge Backyards” and U.S. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S.”

Boone is a college town, home to Appalachian State University. Originally Watauga Academy, the institution was formed to educate the mountain children and to ultimately prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became Appalachian State Teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina system in 1971. The university serves as a top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction.

The Boone area is characterized by mountain culture and casual living. Outdoor activities, cultural events, local dining and unique shops attract visitors from all over the world year-round. From breathtaking scenic views to Boone’s eclectic downtown area, known as King Street, there is something for everyone.

One of the highlights of downtown Boone is the university’s Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. It features six gallery spaces and a community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of recent and historically important artwork and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the finest artists of the region.

A wide array of quality arts and cultural events enhance the Boone community. The university’s month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, known as An Appalachian Summer Festival, has brought notable performers such as Paul Taylor Dance Company, London City Opera, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, Appalachian hosts the Performing Arts Series with artists such as Garrison Keillor and the National Symphony Orchestra.

Boone offers an uncommon quality of life – that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.
