The Travelers Rest Area Business Association proudly announces Mrs. Dot Bishop as our 2008 Citizen of the Year. Sponsored by the Bank of Travelers Rest, this prestigious award recognizes one citizen each year who has worked consistently to make Travelers Rest a better place to live, work and play. Mrs. Bishop, formerly a teacher and guidence counselor at Travelers Rest High School, has worked diligently all her life to enhance the lives of those living in the North County area. Most recently, she has been the leader in gathering artifacts for the Bicentennial celebration of our City, and has been most instrumental in the organization of the new Travelers Rest Historical Society, who's goal is to preserve our past for our future.

2008 TR Christmas Parade
This is your official "kick-off" notice for our 2008 Christmas Parade. I've attached the forms needed to register for the parade. If you enjoy showcasing your group, business or church in front of 6000 people at an extremely reasonable price, this is the place to be.
Our parade is on December 13, time is 3:15 PM, and this event will be the end of our Bicentennial Celebration.
We're also open for a few more volunteers, if you want to come play with us!
Business of the Year 2008

Diana's contributions to Travelers Rest are almost indescribable. Diana maintains business growth while demonstrating true Christian Integrity while owning and operating Compu-Counting. Due to her hard work, she was also the greatest contributor during 2007 Relay for Life. She consistently donates $5.00 from every tax return she prepares in addition to collecting client contributions. Diana is also a volunteer for Angel Food Minitries. She volunteers her time to co-ordinate and encourage "The Breakfast Club" and Activate Greenville team. She actively supports her daughter as she prepares for her duties with the Army National Guard. Diana is presently serving her second year as an outstanding treasurer for our own TRABA. She is also pianist and actively works in her church. Her characteristics and activities can be described in two words, "Serving Others." Her personality makes her a blessing to be around.
