Chairman's Message It is an amazing privilege to serve a second term as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Bristol Chamber of Commerce. Amazing for several reasons, including this is the first time a chairman has served two terms in more than 40 years. I am truly honored. Like baseball legend Yogi Berra said, “it’s déjà vu all over again.” We are coming off an extraordinary year with more grand openings and ribbon cuttings than I have seen in any market I’ve lived in over the past 30 years. Along with the growth in local business, we ushered a new era of leadership into our Chamber with the hiring of Beth Rhinehart as our President and CEO. A year of transition is the best way to describe 2015 for the Chamber. The year 2016 is going to be a year of transformation as well, as we chart a new course with new leadership, a new board of directors and a new sense of excitement and energy. It definitely won’t be déjà vu all over again. The upcoming year will see Colossus unveiled and the Battle at Bristol at Bristol Motor Speedway. Colossus will be the largest outdoor permanent, center-hung digital display in the world, at the home of the World’s Fastest Half Mile and the site of college football’s biggest ever game between the University of Tennessee Volunteers and the Virginia Tech Hokies. Along with welcoming a new coach at Virginia Tech, this will be yet another opportunity to welcome tens of thousands – actually almost 200,000 people to our community. This will be football’s biggest game at the world’s best sporting venue! It’s hard to imagine, The Last Great Colosseum, in a few short weeks following the August Night Race, this year hosted for the first time by Bass Pro Shops and the NRA, being transformed from NASCAR’s greatest venue to college football’s biggest game ever! It’s hard to find words to describe it! What a great time to be in business in Bristol, and what a great time to live here! Our Chamber continues to be a catalyst for growth in our community. We are an economic driver. We continue moving ahead, strengthening our business advocacy and building on a rock-solid foundation. We live in a vibrant community, unmatched in its originality and authenticity. The Bristol Chamber of Commerce continues working hand-in-hand with both Bristol’s to retain and attract new business. We market and promote Bristol. We work together for the common good of our business community. Our Chamber of Commerce is working for you. You are a member of an elite team of entrepreneurs focused on success. We will work together to capitalize on opportunities to build investment in our community’s future. Thank you for all you do for Bristol. Together, we will make 2016 another great year to do business here. In the year 2016 we will see continued strength of the Chamber as an economic driver for the Bristol community. Our membership has never been stronger. We are in an exceptionally strong financial position. In the year ahead your board of directors will continue our efforts to build on the foundation and momentum of our vibrant business community. Our plans include further strengthening our business advocacy efforts, building on the exceptional efforts tied to education and working shoulder-to-shoulder with both cities to retain and attract businesses to one of the best places in the world to work, live and play. The Bristol Chamber of Commerce has established itself as a cohesive team of business and professional community members working together with common goals. The Bristol Chamber of Commerce is working for you. As a member you have joined an elite team of entrepreneurs focused on success. We are working together, capitalize on opportunities and invest in our community’s future. Thank you for your investment – together we are making Bristol a good place to live. I am excited about working with and for each of you to help make 2016 a great year. Jim Maxwell 2016 Chairman, Board of Directors Bristol Tennessee/Virginia Chamber of Commerce

Bristol Tennessee Schools
Bristol Virginia Schools
Bristol Tennessee City Schools currently has a new five-year strategic plan which focuses on making certain students are ready for college and career. A key component of the plan is making sure the school system offers the right programs that will prepare students to fill the workforce needs of area businesses and industries, something Dr. Gary Lilly, Director of Schools, says is crucial.
Bristol Virginia City Schools’ strategic plan and goals are to improve and expand their CTE (career and technical) program to increase enrollment offerings and student licensure certification, explore opportunities to increase and continue support of business partnerships, recognize and encourage use of available business incentives and investigate mentoring partnerships with area businesses and civic groups..
“As a school district, we truly value the relationship that we are able to forge with folks from area businesses and industries and appreciate their interest in our students,” he said. “Those relationships help us understand how we can best prepare students to meet local labor needs. When the education and business sectors work together, it is a win-win for our students and our community.” The Bristol Tennessee City School system consists of Tennessee High, Vance Middle, and Anderson, Avoca, Fairmont, Haynesfield and Holston View Elementary Schools.
TN SCHOLARS is a partnership between businesses and schools that prepares individuals for college or to join the workforce. Scholars must take more demanding classes in high school, complete at least 80 hours of community service, have an overall attendance rate of 95 percent and have no out of school suspensions. Students must meet other state mandate requirements for end of course proficiency.
Partnerships with area businesses are crucial, according to Rex Gearheart, Superintendent for Bristol Virginia Public Schools. “It is vital that our public schools and businesses build partnerships to provide today’s students and tomorrow’s workers with the skills and training they need to hold successful careers right here in Bristol and the Tri-Cities region,” he said. The Bristol Virginia Public Schools system consists of Virginia High, Virginia Middle, and Highland View, Stonewall, Van Pelt and Washington-Lee Elementary Schools.
VHCC APPALACHIAN INTER-SCHOLARS (AIMS) HIGHER SCHOLARSHIP is available to students at area Virginia high schools who participate in the Citizens In Action program. Students who meet the criteria for the program will earn a two-year scholarship to Virginia Highlands Community College at no cost. Students must volunteer, maintain a 2.0 GPA, have no more than eight excused absences and none unexcused.
Sullivan County Schools Sullivan County Schools immediate goal focuses on improving and expanding certain school facilities as the system continues to build relationships with the business community. “It’s important for so many reasons,” said Evelyn Rafalowski, Director of Schools for Sullivan County. “We rely on our businesses to provide sponsorships and mentoring opportunities for our students, as well as being active in our classrooms and extracurricular support system.” “Our motto in Sullivan County Schools is “Our Children; Our Future”. We want our students to remain in our outstanding community and connecting them with the needs of our area businesses is essential. Our students are our future; our future leaders and our future workforce. We welcome and embrace building relationships with our businesses and thank them for their support!” For a listing of all 23 schools, visit http://sullivank12.net/schools/
STEM SUPPORT, a Robotics and Engineering initiative for area middle school students, works with Bristol Tennessee Essential Services and BVU Authority and the Chamber to ensure that students have the chance to explore engineering and robotics.

You’re going to love the sound of what you hear when collaboration and innovation play together. In the Birthplace of Country Music, most people recognize a cool guitar when they see it. But they might be surprised by the role Eastman had in enabling its acoustics and design. At Eastman, we make materials that are found in many of the products you use every day. Through collaboration with designers and other experts, we’re also redefining what’s possible— like this guitar made with renewable Eastman Tenite™ cellulosics instead of fine woods harvested from endangered rain forests. We are proud to support the Bristol Chamber of Commerce and the companies and communities it serves. Through collaboration, we can do more than create jobs. We can create possibilities ... and beautiful music together. To learn how Eastman materials improve other products and markets, visit www.Eastman.com/BristolChamber.

Retail development tops the list of permits being granted followed by residential permits. “The City has witnessed a spur of economic development, an acceleration of development activity unprecedented since the pre-recession era. We have seen a number of trends in development such as expansion of existing manufacturing facilities,” said City Manager Bill Sorah.
Economic Development Strategies City officials have embarked on a lengthy process to develop a comprehensive plan that sets goals and guidelines, and establishes a long-range vision for the City. With input from the community, the plan will articulate a long-term plan for growth and development. Short-term goals for continued development include fostering industrial expansion, bolstering industrial recruitment strategies and re-engineering the Bristol economy to capitalize on its status as a regional hub.

It will boast apparel, sporting goods, department stores, as well as restaurants, hotels, etc. • The Falls can reshape the economy of the city and region, generating $47.6 million in tax revenues, and creating 4,541 jobs statewide.

Bruton Smith Honored With Bristol Chamber’s 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award Bruton Smith’s roots are firmly planted in North Carolina but the 88-year-old founder of Speedway Motorsports Inc. (SMI) has found a home away from home in Bristol. Smith, who stepped down as Chairman and CEO of SMI last February and is now the company’s executive chairman while his son Marcus has taken over as CEO, has long been a vital part of the Bristol community. Smith purchased Bristol Motor Speedway in 1996 and quickly began building it into one of NASCAR’s crown jewels. BMS now seats in excess of 150,000, making it one of the world’s largest permanent seating facilities. Not only does the half-mile oval host two of NASCAR’s most popular race weekends each April and August, Bristol Dragway, which Smith also purchased in 1996 and rebuilt in 1997, hosts one of the NHRA’s most popular drag races every June. To say Smith has bolstered Bristol’s economy is a vast understatement. In the nearly two decades he’s owned both tracks, hundreds of billions of dollars have been infused into the local economy. But that’s not all. Smith’s Speedway Children’s Charities, which he founded in 1982, has raised nearly $10 million for children’s agencies in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. For his many contributions to Bristol and surrounding communities, Smith is the 2016 recipient of the Bristol Chamber of Commerce’s Lifetime Achievement honor. “It is quite an honor to be recognized by the Bristol Chamber of Commerce with the Lifetime Achievement Award,” said Smith, who will be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Jan. 22. “The people of Bristol have always been very good to me and they’ve been extremely supportive of Bristol Motor Speedway and Bristol Dragway and all we’ve accomplished there. We’ve done a lot of work at both tracks over the years and built them into something I believe the community is just as 42 42
proud of as I am.” Smith was thrilled to learn that Jeff Byrd, the former president of BMS, who passed away in 2010 and was one of his closest friends, also earned the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Bristol Chamber. “From the moment I bought the track in 1996, I felt like Bristol welcomed me with open arms,” he said. “Jeff Byrd felt that same way - he loved this city and the people in it. The fact that I am being honored with the same award he received means a lot to me and I’m very appreciative of it.” As Smith prepares for this year’s Battle at Bristol college football game between the University of Tennessee and Virginia Tech – a dream of his and Byrd’s 17 years in the making – he’s also extremely proud of the number of children who have benefited from Speedway Children’s Charities. The organization, which has chapters at each of his eight race tracks, has distributed more than $46 million since its inception in 1982. “When I started Speedway Children’s Charities the goal was to care for children who are in educational, financial, social and medical need so that they can lead productive lives,” he said.
“I’m very proud of what Claudia Byrd (Executive Director of the Bristol chapter) has done with Speedway Children’s Charities there in Bristol. “She has done an incredible job raising nearly $10 million since 1996 and every bit of that has gone to support children’s agencies there in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.” Smith founded SMI in December 1994, and in February 1995 he made it the first motorsports company to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:TRK). SMI owns and operates BMS and seven other premier motorsports facilities: Atlanta Motor Speedway, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Kentucky Speedway, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Sonoma Raceway, New Hampshire Motor Speedway and Texas Motor Speedway. Speedway Motorsports also provides souvenir merchandising services through its SMI Properties subsidiary; manufactures and distributes smaller-scale, modified racing cars through U.S. Legend Cars International; and markets, produces and distributes motorsports programming to more than 700 radio stations through the Performance Racing Network.

Battle At Bristol – A Dream Gam When Bruton Smith purchased Bristol Motor Speedway and Bristol Dragway in 1997 he immediately began transforming both facilities. NASCAR’s greatest visionary completely rebuilt the Dragway, developing it into a state-of-the-art facility but he also had big plans for the little half-mile oval – and they didn’t stop with simply turning it into the sport’s most popular track. While he did just that – converting BMS into one of the world’s largest permanent seating facilities with more than 150,000 seats along the way – Smith continued thinking of innovative ways to use the facility. And it didn’t take him long to debut his next big idea. With all those seats built up around BMS, Smith felt the facility looked like a stadium so why not host a college football game? Invite the University of Tennessee and Virginia Tech, two local favorites, to play in what would be the largest crowd to ever view a football game. It would make history, something he knew plenty about. Fans, as well as the media, loved the idea. Tennessee and Virginia Tech, not so much. The two teams either weren’t interested in giving up a home date or they couldn’t make it work on their schedules. So, hopes for the dream game slowly faded… but never completely away, at least not in Smith’s mind. Talk about the game continued and Smith and BMS president Jeff Byrd, who would pass away in 2010, kept looking for a way to make it happen. Finally, in 2013, after being thwarted for years, the persistence of Smith, his son Marcus and BMS general manager Jerry Caldwell paid off – Tennessee and Virginia Tech agreed to play in the Battle at Bristol on Sept. 10, 2016. Seeing the game finally coming to fruition makes the executive director of Speedway Motorsports Inc. more than a little proud. “We talked about for years,” he said. “Jeff Byrd and I had the idea a long time ago but things just kept coming up that didn’t make it possible. We kept working on it though because we knew we had the perfect facility for it and we knew a Tennessee/Virginia Tech game would draw a lot of interest. 44 44
me A Long Time In The Making “And now that it’s finally going to happen this year I couldn’t be happier. We’re making history with this game - something we’re pretty good at in Bristol.” Did Smith ever give up on making the game happen? “No, I didn’t,” he said. “I knew we had some great people who kept working on it… Marcus, Jerry (Caldwell) and his folks just kept at it. It never crossed my mind that we couldn’t get it done. We like to make things happen, especially when others might not think it’s possible.” Caldwell says it’s amazing to finally see Smith and Byrd’s dream become a reality. “This is something that’s been decades in the making and for us to be a part of this dream of Bruton Smith’s and Jeff Byrd’s that started 17 years ago, and to see it come to fruition, is really special,” he said. “It’s special for the Bristol family, it’s special for this region, it’s special for both institutions, and it’s going to be an event like none other. The largest football game in history…that’s the way we do things at Speedway Motorsports and that’s the way Bruton Smith likes to see us do things. It’s going to be a Bristol experience like none other.”
Like Caldwell and his father, Marcus Smith can barely contain his excitement when thinking about the game. “I’m a big college football fan and I can tell you that people are just as passionate about it as they are about racing and that’s saying a lot,” he said. “Obviously, turning the track into a football stadium is quite an undertaking but Jerry and his guys have it all figured out and both Tennessee and Virginia Tech have been counting down the days just like we have. “I think it’s going to give the college game even more exposure, and to an entirely different group of fans too. Football fans who may not have been to a track and race fans who may not be into football are all just going nuts over this game and can’t wait for it to happen. It’s definitely going to be pretty special.” So the countdown to history – and Sept. 10 – continues. With fans clamoring for tickets to see the long awaited contest, who will the guy who inspired it be pulling for on game day? “I’ll be for Tennessee in one half and Virginia Tech in the other half,” said Bruton Smith with a laugh. “It’s going to be a historymaking game between two great teams. And that’s really all that matters.”
Colossus Coming to The Last Great Colosseum The Last Great Colosseum will debut “Colossus,” the world’s largest outdoor, permanent, center-hung digital display for the Food City 500 race weekend April 17-19. Four high-resolution screens and a spectacular sound system will take the Bristol experience to an a new level. Each of Colossus’ four custom-built screens is approximately 30 feet tall by 63 feet wide. In total, the system hosts nearly 54 million LEDs and 18 million pixels. At 6mm pitch, the pixels are grouped tighter than the large-scale outdoor displays in Times Square. The result: a glimmering visual experience capable of offering 281 trillion different color combinations, and one that’s 23 times brighter and 25 percent sharper than the typical home HD TV. The display will hang from a halo-shaped truss and features an additional circular LED display beneath the screens which measures nearly six feet in height. Between the screens and the LED ring, that’s more than 8,500 square feet of high-resolution, active viewing area.
Colossus also boasts a state-of-the-art, 540,000-watt audio system powering 380 3-way loudspeakers and 48 stadium subwoofers, enough to make any rock star squirm with envy. By contrast, the current system hosts 2,400 watts of power, with only 10 2-way loudspeakers and 8 subwoofers.

The Bristol Chamber of Commerce has held a prestigious 5-STAR ACCREDITATION since 2005, a significant advantage for our membership. As 5-Star Accreditation from the United States Chamber of Commerce is the primary goal of every Chamber in the country but less than 1 percent of the nearly 7,000 Chambers in the U.S. have received that honor. In fact, the Bristol Chamber is one of only two 5-Star organizations in Tennessee and one of only six in Virginia. This accreditation is an esteemed honor that distinguishes the high quality, expertise, and strong leadership displayed by accredited state and local chambers of commerce and we are privileged to be among them. The Bristol Chamber of Commerce continues to strive for excellence in contributing positive changes to our community and is dedicated to economic prosperity and corporate growth in Bristol and the surrounding areas.
