Due to a lack of funding and donations during these hard economical times, Big Brothers & Big Sisters of Clarksville is in danger of having to close their doors and move their operation to Nashville. All contest proceeds, and any community donations will go toward keeping Big Brothers & Big Sisters of Clarksville, TN.  Tennessee’s fifth largest and fastest growing city should not be without a Big Brothers & Big Sisters in our community and we need to do all we can to make sure that they are not forced to relocate!

The public is invited to come out and witness this amazing feat of strength and community involvement and also help us raise funds for a worthwhile charitable cause!
