8 Take Your Next Adventure at Greers Ferry Lake

On October 3, 1963, Greers Ferry Lake made national news when
President John F. Kennedy was the featured speaker at the dedication of
the newly completed Greers Ferry Dam. This was his last major public
appearance before his fateful
trip to Dallas the following
month.
Fifty years later, on October
3, 2013, former President Bill
Clinton celebrated, with the
thousands in attendance, the
anniversary of the opening of
Greers Ferry Dam speaking
from the same podium that
President Kennedy had used.
