There is a new way to read a story in the park

Pinkerton Park Storybook Trail opens Friday, March 2

The City of Franklin Parks Department is partnering with Friends of Franklin Parks and the Williamson County Library to create a new opportunity for children and families at Pinkerton Park. On Friday, March 2, at 3:30 p.m. officials will cut the ribbon on the new Storybook Trail, an interactive walk and read experience along the trail at Pinkerton Park.

The ribbon cutting will begin at 3:30 p.m. and families and children are invited to attend.  Mayor Moore and Mayor Anderson will be joining us to read along the 1/2 trail to help celebrate Read Across America. Refreshments will be served and a few furry friends from the story may be on hand!

The exhibit will be ongoing throughout the year and the goal is to change the story annually. This is a great way to get kids reading and enjoying the outdoors! Parents can also purchase the book with proceeds benefiting Friends of Franklin Parks. Contact Torrey Barnhill at tbarnhill@friendsoffranklinparks.org.
