Officials in Erwin joined Gov. Bill Lee and state tourism officials to unveil the first of the state's new "Welcome to Tennessee" signage program at the Unicoi County Welcome Center in Erwin. The new signage is part of $5 million in the state’s Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget to promote and showcase scenic beauty along Tennessee's major corridors and marks the first major redesign of the state’s welcome sign since 1995. The new signs will be erected at each of the state’s welcome centers and at 16 interstate entry points over the coming months.
