  • Season One: Sunday April 3 will be the Hello St. Elmo! Street Festival and Parades

    This coming Sunday, April 3, will be the much-anticipated spring festival Hello St. Elmo!
    Families can plan to make a late afternoon and early evening of the event as multiple food vendors will be on hand. The event is 4 until 8pm and occurs on St. Elmo Avenue and will feature 3 main things: the opening of the newest section of the Tennessee Riverwalk connecting downtown and St. Elmo, a children's parade and the somewhat famous St. Elmo Corgi Parade. Bob Wright "frames up" the event for us on this quick, event-specific episode of the Mountain Echo. Bob is the creator of the Corgi Parade and is known by many folks on Lookout Mountain and around the city. Thank you again Bob!
