纳什维尔机场委员会周五全票通过决议,将机场改名以纪念已故乡村音乐歌手多莉·帕顿。1帕顿于上月以80岁高龄去世。1
这项改名工程涉及范围广泛。整个4500英亩产权范围内的标识、纪念碑、商品、班车、员工制服、名片、商业合同和租赁协议都需要更新。1田纳西州州长比尔·李称此举"意义重大",是"向她非凡遗产致敬的重要一步"。1
帕顿旗下的杜乐芙主题公园每年为田纳西州贡献约18亿美元。1帕顿生前还通过其想象图书馆慈善机构为国际识字事业做出贡献。1据报道,帕顿曾就改名计划表示:"我想那可能更多是个玩笑。我的意思是,说'你的航班即将从纳什维尔D帕顿出发'听起来很有趣。"1
The Nashville airport board voted unanimously on Friday to rename the facility in tribute to country music legend Dolly Parton, who passed away last month at age 80 1. The decision marks a formal recognition of Parton's cultural significance and her substantial contributions to the region's economy and charitable causes.
The renaming process will be extensive and time-consuming, requiring updates across the entire 4,500-acre property, including signage, monuments, merchandise, shuttles, employee uniforms, business cards, commercial contracts, and lease agreements 1. Tennessee Governor Bill Lee characterized the move as "significant," calling it "an important step in honoring her extraordinary legacy" 1. Parton's Dollywood theme park generates approximately 1.8 billion dollars annually for Tennessee 1, underscoring her economic impact on the state.
Parton herself had previously expressed mixed feelings about the airport renaming proposal, remarking that it "might be more of a joke" and noting that announcements like "your flight is departing from Nashville D. Parton" would sound amusing 1. Beyond her entertainment career, Parton made lasting contributions to international literacy initiatives through her Imagination Library charity 1.
