SUMMARY: Asheville and surrounding Buncombe County are slowly recovering from the extensive damage caused by heavy rainfall from Hurricane Helen, which brought 10 to 30 inches of rain. Roads are buckled and the infrastructure is slowly being restored, but approximately 100,000 residents remain without water, complicating efforts to resume school and business operations. Currently, water is being hand-delivered, but there is progress, as nearby Nashville is starting to see water restoration. The River Arts District was the hardest hit, indicating that recovery will take considerable time. Meteorologist Jordan Steel reports on the ongoing situation.

SUMMARY: Today marks Indigenous Peoples’ Day, also known as Columbus Day, but it is also recognized as Pinko Day. Members of the Chickasaw andanda Foundation held a wreath-laying ceremony at Fair Park to honor Chief Pinko, a notable leader and diplomat from the 1700s who was friends with George Washington. The event featured various activities aimed at celebrating Chickasaw culture, including games, tools, weapons, dancing, and music. Historians believe Chief Pinko died near Tupelo in 1799. Chickasaw elder Robert Perry participated as one of the wreath bearers during the ceremony.

The Chickasaw Inkana Foundation not only celebrated Indigenous Peoples’ Day but also Piominko Day.
