Downtown Tryon was packed with visitors on Friday, as the Tryon Downtown Development Association hosted a special “Fourth Friday” event that evening. The association and local businesses teamed up to offer a number of silent auctions, raffles and other functions to raise money for Trevor Arrowood, the son of Tryon Police Chief Jeff Arrowood who was recently diagnosed with a cancerous sarcoma in his heart. The various fundraisers generated around $2,500 for Arrowood, said TDDA Executive Director Jamie Carpenter. (Photos by Ted Yoakum/Tryon Daily Bulletin)
