the “music of the surf”, that has brought them together to form
this outstanding combo. Big Fez & the Surfmatics’ repertoire
includes the great instrumental hits of the surf era,

and 2 are largely complete with amenities and interest points to be
added as time goes on. It will continue to be a work in progress.
The town has embarked upon a third phase of this project with
the purchase of 8 acres of property at 13 Lanfear Road. This
property is directly across the road from the Dean Homestead
Museum. This will enable the continuation of the Dean trail system
with the intent of a connection to Creek Center. The property
also sits adjacent to the town’s current park, Green Meadows. A
foot bridge will be established over the creek to connect the new
property and the Dean Trails with the Green Meadows Park.
Discussion and planning on other uses of this property are ongoing,
and include overflow parking for large events such as the
annual Mountain Days Festival, a library/community center that
will accommodate large and small groups of people for a multitude
of uses, such as plays, concerts, arts and crafts workshops,
conferences, book signings, nature programs, creek side water
ecology, gardens and greenhouses, and possibility a museum depicting
the town’s history of logging and tanneries. The vision is
development of a facility that can be flexible enough to be used
for many things including space for weddings, family reunions
and celebrations. The goal is to create a destination that attracts
visitors to our area and the First Wilderness Corridor and provides
them with activities to do and things to see. The more people
that visit, the more opportunities expand for businesses to offer
services and products, making for a memorable experience people
will want to repeat.
