 Friends Annual Meeting June 14
 

The annual meeting will be held June 14 at the park Visitors Center.  Friends board members and volunteers will provide lunch. Music will be provided by the Bazzania Band. With help from Tennessee State Naturalist Randy Hedgepath, we are still working in a program that both adults and children will enjoy.

 
The agenda will include reports about the status of the Park and Friends programs, election of officers and directors, and presentation of the Jim Prince Award.
 
Please join us!
