West Virginia keeps past times Close and safe. We’re plain and simple people, and we remember the basics.
Pride in who we are is easy - no matter what our different beliefs. We laugh easily, but honestly.
“Come home with your wild, sweet smile,” is the way we expresses our basic message that, despite politics or arguments, we want you to remember home and be happy to be home.
Smile.

West Virginia has more extended families, per capita, than any other state, so we’re blessed with many “Mamaws and Papaws.”

Then rest a while.
West Virginia birds live in wild, sweet style.
