Phone Numbers and Links to other neighborhood organizations.

scan15.jpgHere are phone numbers that are useful. In addition, the highlighted links are to local or official sites of interest. You can find a large number of links at this Knoxville site www.knoxville-tn.com/knox.html. It has things to do, political sources, churches, schools, and it is kept up to date. Try it.

www.knoxvilletennessee.com/ provides lots of links to entertainment and activities in the Knoxville area.

If you find that a link is broken on this page, please send an e-mail about the broken link to hckrywds@chartertn.net If you have found the correct web address, send us that, too. It is really hard for us to keep this up to date, and anything our readers can do to help with updating is valuable.

Explore the Feds here at KORRnet, our kind server provider. Pointers to interesting Fed agencies like DOE, the Cabinets, ORNL, the Constitution, the White House, Congress and more...

Current legislation and historical documents can be found at Thomas the page maintained by the Library of Congress for this purpose. Very interesting page. Look up the constitution here.

To contact Congressman John J. Duncan, Representative for our district, use this link. This service for the representatives protects them from spam, so it is the only way to get mail to them now. To use the link, first make up a text file with your message, then copy it to the clipboard. When you go to the WriteRep site, fill in your name, address and e-mail, then paste your message in the message block. Its pretty easy to use, but harder than straight e-mail. (JPA)
