To: All Participants and Visitors,
Welcome to the 2021 Chilhowie Community Apple Festival. We are very excited to be able
to have the festival this year after not being able to have it last year due to Covid restric-
tions. Our theme for this year’s festival is “Flavors of Fall”.
Everyone has something that they associate with Fall, whether it is the smell of falling
leaves, a crisp fall morning, pumpkins and fodder shocks, a football game, or the beauty
of the turning leaves on a mountain hillside. We hope that our festival helps rekindle the
pleasant “flavors” of falls gone by and creates new “flavors” to savor in the future.
We hope that you enjoy visiting our festival and our community. We look forward to seeing
you again at the next Chilhowie Community Apple Festival.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Wilkinson-Smith
Vicki Wilson

Apple Festival Beginnings
History of the Festival
The Chilhowie Community Apple Festival had its beginning on a dreary rainy night in March of
1953. A group of young men got together for the purpose of discussing the possibilities of im-
proving our town. During the evening, they decided to organize the Chilhowie Junior Chamber of
Commerce. This organization received its charter on April 21, 1953.
During the spring of the same year, some of these members visited the Apple Blossom Festival
in Winchester, Virginia. They returned to Chilhowie and suggested that they stage a festival and
pay tribute to the apple, rather than the blossom. This would be most appropriate since Chihowie
was the second largest apple producing center in Virginia for which Bonham Brothers and Duncan
Orchards were the producers. Thus, plans and ideas developed fro the beginning of the Chilhowie
Apple Festival. The first festival was held on October 2, 1953 on the grounds of the Old Chilhowie
High School. Crowds, far larger than anticipated, attended that year’s events. It was estimated that
10,000 persons viewed the first parade!
The Festival continued to grow beyond what one club could manage. Therefore, in 1965, other
civic clubs joined in, and the name was changed to the Chilhowie Community Apple Festival. The
aspirations of the new board were the same as the original board to strive to have a Festival for
which the town and surrounding communities could be proud.
In the 1980s, weather-related crop losses and the deaths of the leaders of the Bonham family
combined to cause a decline in the once booming Bonson’s Apples business, dealing a blow to
the apple industry in Chilhowie. The Duncan Orchard continued for several years more, but closed
earlier this century.
The event was, and has continued to be, family and community oriented with activities for ev-
eryone. Over the years, various forms of entertainment have been a part of the Festival. They
have included sky diving exhibitions; performances by professional square dancers, cloggers and
musical entertainers; a Model T car comedy; motorcycle rider show; and pony and horse shows.
Past events scheduled for participation by the public were: tractor driving contests, talent shows,
square dances, baby shows, sock hops, street dances, Kids Day activities, and barbecued chicken
suppers. Regular events, occurring dur- ing each Festival, are the beauty pageant, agricultural and
crafts fair, pet show, parade, and high school band competition.
The funds raised by the Apple Festival Committee are used to pay for worthwhile projects which
benefit the community. The Festival has made monetary contributions to the Town, schools, and
community. Contributions have been made to band directors for band trips and uniforms, to Proj-
ect Graduation, to schools for the purchase of equipment, to Chilhowie Elementary for Williams-
burg trips, to the Old High School Renovations Committee for many renovations, and to fire and
rescue squads. The Festival shared the cost with the Town for the stage at the community Park
and for the street Christmas lights. Prior to each year’s Festival, the committee purchases and dec-
orates the Town with fall corn, gourds, pumpkins, mums, and flags. Santa Claus, Christmas treats,
and community lighted Christmas trees were a Festival- sponsored tradition for over 20 years.
As soon as one Festival ends, the committee begins planning for the next year.

2021 Apple Festival Parade Marshal
We are pleased to announce that our 2021 Parade Marshal is Chihowie’s own Olivia Bailey.
Olivia is a 2010 graduate of Chilhowie High School. She went on to graduate from Emory & Henry
College in 2014 with degrees in both mass communications and public policy & community service.
Olivia learned her trade through an internship with WCYB while in college. She went on to
spend time at CNN Newsource and the CNN Wire in Atlanta in 2013. There, Olivia met her
mentor, Jason Meucci, who played a critical role beyond CNN in her love and appreciation for
local news and its value to the community.
In 2014, Olivia also served with a team at CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley. While in New
York City, Olivia worked directly with Anthony Mason’s producing team. From day-to-day, she
collected facts and logged interviews related to the stories of the day. She also led social media
accounts for Mason during CBS This Morning Saturday.
Olivia came back to Bristol to join the WCYB team full-time. She continues to work just about
every job in the newsroom during her time from running the teleprompter to now working as a
full-time morning anchor for News 5 Today. She consistently is out in the field bringing northeast
Tennessee and southwest Virginia reports that matter most to their communities.
Olivia works to give back to community issues in a number of sectors, including education
access, youth development, and childhood cancer resources. She has served as a Tennessee
Achieves mentor for high school students entering their first year of college through the
Tennessee Promise program. She is a long-time volunteer coach and site liaison for Girls on the
Run, a physical activity-based positive youth development program. Olivia coaches on
self-confidence and positive behaviors among 3rd-5th grade girls. Olivia also supports the
Distinguished Women of Southwest Virginia program, a national scholarship opportunity
promoting the full potential for high-school girls. She has served in additional roles with the
northeast Tennessee chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Team-in-Training with the
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. She also draws on her experience working in community and
economic development in Dublin, Ireland and the Town of Marion, Virginia prior to serving in her
broadcast role full-time.
She is also the number one supporter of her younger siblings: Jordan, Rachel, and Isabella.

20 | Chilhowie Apple Festival 2021Apple Festival Parade Bands
In 1953, a group of young men got together to discuss the possibilities of improving their town. It was
from that gathering that the annual Chilhowie Community Apple Festival was born. Today, now 68 years
later, this community festival lives on.. Berry Home Centers is proud to continue to be a part of this year’s
Chilhowie Community Apple Festival tradition. As part of the 2018 festivities, Berry’s donated $5,000 by
contributing $500 to each high school marching band that participated in the festival’s parade.
They are following the same practice this year with one exception. Due to the price of fuel and the fact
that many bands were unable to have fundraisers last year, the total contribution has been raised to $7500
with each band receiving $750. Please join us as we celebrate the town we call home and the 68th year of
the Chilhowie Community Apple Festival. Band parade participation is coordinated by the Chilhowie High
School Band Director and the Apple Festival Outside Chairperson
Apple Festival Band Competition
1:00 pm Saturday September 25, 2021
The high school marching band competition is held each year as part of the festival. Many of the bands
also march in the Grand Parade before competing with each other at the Chilhowie High School Stadium.
This is the oldest continuous band festival in Virginia or Tennesee. This year marks the 68th year of the
band festival.
Admission to the band competition at the stadium is $5.00 per person. No passes of any kind are
accepted since this is not a Virginia High School League event. The admission fee goes to the Chilhowie
Band Boosters to help with the purchase of uniforms and other band related expenses.
The Chilhowie Band Boosters, Chilhowie High School, and Emory and Henry College sponsor this event.
