In the summer of 1967, the North Carolina Fund and WAMY Community Action financed a rural water project in the Avery County settlement known as Blevins Creek. Until that time, local residents had walked miles each day to fetch water in buckets from a nearby spring. Sargent Shriver, director of the federal Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO), and evangelist Billy Graham visited Blevins Creek for the project's dedication ceremony. OEO documented the event in this film.

Song: Ady's Song by Colin Lake Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. ~John Muir God writes the gospel not in the Bible alone, but on trees and flowers and clouds and stars. ~Martin Luther I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright. ~Henry David Thoreau I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes. ~ee cummings The human spirit needs places where nature has not been rearranged by the hand of man. ~Author Unknown Never does nature say one thing and wisdom another. ~Juvenal, Satires Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul. ~John Muir Great things are done when men and mountains meet. This is not done by jostling in the street. ~William Blake I believe in God, only I spell it Nature. ~Frank Lloyd Wright, quoted, 14 August 1966 Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better. ~Albert Einstein Nature is my medicine. ~Sara Moss-Wolfe Those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life. ~Rachel Carson Nature is man's teacher <b>...</b>
