New Year’s Eve walk at McGregor ParkBy Debbie Boen | December 31, 2008 | Party the Tennessee Trails way by taking a walk with us on New Year’s Eve. Meet at McGregor Park on Riverside at 9 p.m. tonight and walk around downtown with spry Tennessee Trail members, Suva (pictured in red coat) and Jack Bastin (white cap), who lead and follow the group.
