July 21st Full Moon Morning Hike

Join Star Henderson to hike the Bartram Trail through Franklin to witness this July’s full moon.

We’ll take the new route through the Fairgrounds and Rec Park, continuing down Allman Drive, through the Cartoogechaye Creek meadow, onto the Little Tennessee Greenway to Big Bear, then continue down Main Street Franklin to Just Donuts for refreshments and rides back to the start.

We’ll meet at the parking lot behind Outdoor 76 at 5am to shuttle to the Fairgrounds. Yes it’s early, but it may be just what we need to start the day strong!
