Abstract:

The Northwest North Carolina Development Association had its beginning in 1953 when Archie K. Davis, senior vice-president of the Wachovia Bank and Trust Company invited some 40 leaders from nine counties to attend a meeting, the purpose of which was to discuss problems of regional importance. The Association has sought to promote agricultural development, industrial development, community development, and travel/recreational development in the area.
