6th Annual TN Beer Festival at Two Rivers Mansion

Donelson Non-Profit News – October 2015

Congratulations goes to Larry Keeton for being named one of the First Night Honors, recognizing individuals who have taken leading roles in advocating for live theater in Tennessee.  Larry was recognized for his work with his namesake, The Larry Keeton Theater.

Two great events coming up at Two Rivers Mansion.  The first one coming up is the 6th Annual Tennessee Beer and Wine Festival on Saturday, October 17.  Early tickets are on sale now at their website.

The second is the annual Friends of Two Rivers Mansion Halloween at the Mansion from 4-8pm on Saturday October 24th.  This is a free event and open to the public.

Congratulations to the Friends of Buchanan Station Cemetery for securing the funding needed to place a very nice fence around the historic property.  This group has worked hard with the former property owner to secure the transfer of the land to Metro.  The property also received a Historic Overlay as part of a group of properties proposed by Mayor Dean at the end of his administration.  There is a goal of creating an interpretive walkway to the cemetery on a future part of the Metro Greenway and the Friends of BSC continue to work to advocate for that.
