omin ' Home X 1986 was truly Tennessee ' s homecoming! It was a year for re- living old memories and making new ones. Reflected in the Tennes- see homecoming logo, this was a time for returning home to cele- brate good friends, good times and the good life ; a time for rediscov- ering roots, looking into the past, and building on it for the future. It was more than a celebration; it was a rediscovery of those values that Americans everywhere recognize as their roots and their heritage. With the help of Pilot Commu- nities all over Tennessee, the state had a complete facelift. The Pilot Community of Milan, Tennessee had I ' ll be home for Christmas as its theme, with a big red bow tied around a tree in every yard in town. Everyone from Minnie Pearl to Alex Haley joined the celebrations. Commercials on both television and radio enthusiastically encour- aged people to come on and en- joy a foot-pattin ' down home good time! True Tennessee pride was shown throughout the state as Tennessee was given this special year to shine. And shine we did!! Civil War reinactments at Shi- loh, Parker ' s- Crossroads, Pick- wick, and others were visited by people from all over the United States from New York to California. The softer side of the celebra - tion was seen in commercials such as the one with Amazing Grace being sung or played in many vari- ous ways. The theme rang out that no matter how you play it, the message is always the same! People all over the state, from the great Smokeys to the Mighty Mississippi, from the one -room country churches to the State Cap- itol, Tennesseans are proud to be Americans and are proud of their state! Whether it ' s 1986 or the year 2000, Come on home to the good life ...
