    The Gorge lost a tremendous leader, friend, and colleague on May 15th, 2019: Lake Lure Mayor, Kevin Cooley passed away peacefully following a cardiac arrest on May 2nd. We will always have profound gratitude to Kevin for his significant role in bringing the Chamber of Hickory Nut Gorge to a place of strength, stability, and professionalism at a pivotal time in its history.
