Bring your family, picnic baskets and lawn chairs for a night of beautiful music under the stars. It is the perfect way to spend a springtime night.

The TWRA and City of Clarksville Youth Fishing Rodeo is set to take place Saturday at the Clarksville Fairgrounds. Youth up to age 16 are allowed to participate for free. Registration begins at 7a.m and fishing begins at 8a.m. Get there early and claim your spot as the pond becomes crowded quickly.
For more information call TWRA at 1-800-624-7406.
Downtown Market
Be sure to mark Saturday, June 6th, as for the kick off of the much anticipated Downtown Market. The first Downtown Market will feature a “‘green” theme where vendors and patrons will be provided with information on how to be kinder to the earth.
The Market is still in need of vendors. If you are interested in selling your products, contact the Parks and Recreation office for more information or visit www.cityofclarksville.com. Downtown Market vendors may sell fresh produce, homemade items, fresh flowers and more. We would love to have you be a part of the excitement every Saturday from 8a.m. to 1p.m. at the Downtown Market.
