New Year’s Eve walk at McGregor ParkParty the Tennessee Trails way by taking a walk with us on New Year’s Eve.

It’s an easy walk but consider that we will go up stairs and uphill from the park. Wear appropriate clothing. No paper party hats required and no throw-up bibs needed. This walking party enjoys being sober. Ask Suva and Jack about the 8 mile annual hike that Tennessee Trails does the following New Year’s day at Montgomery Bell Park.
