In just a few weeks, more than a thousand business and community leaders from across the region will be gathering here at the East Kentucky Expo Center in Pikeville as the 5th Annual Source Summit gets underway. For the past five years, thousands have gathered once a year for the summit to network and share ideas about ways to breathe new life into Appalachia. The people of the region are taking ownership in and saying, you know, we're doing things in our own community. We're not just going to wait for some announcement from the outside to come in and solve all our problems. These are the people, your neighbors that are solving the problems. SOAR Executive Director Jared Arnett said this year's summit on Friday, August 31st will have a mix of ideas for the future and celebrations of recent successes. We're going to have nearly 70 booths, projects set up showcasing the innovative work that's going on. Some of these things are from schools, American Metalworks is going to be there, Interblue is going to have a booth, Silverliner is going to have a booth. I think we might even actually have a tanker truck. One of the first ones that wrote off the line there that people can see, you're just going to be able to experience the vision and the work that's going on to help create a future in Appalachia. Governor Matt Bevin, Congressman Hal Rogers and Appalachian Regional Commission Federal Co-Chair Tim Thomas will address attendees as well as other business leaders. But Arnett says the true success stories in SOAR originate from the connections that are made through networking. I think at first people thought we were going to create this new economic future and really what we're doing is coordinating and organizing it and leading it. So we're not doing it all, but we're leading the team of organizations and people that are working together as a team to get it done. The 2018 SOAR Summit will take place on August 31st, but tickets are also available to attend a reception featuring the Kentucky Opry the night before.
