Today the public is invited to the dedication ceremony which will take place at the Headwaters Wildlife Management Area in Short Mountain. At 10:00 this morning the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, The Tennessee Department of General Services, the Office of Governor Bill Haslam and the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation will gather with local officials to celebrate the dedication of land which will become known as the Headwaters Wildlife Management Area. Short Mountain is the highest point in Middle Tennessee. Its long ridge lines form the headwater boundaries of three watersheds; the Caney Fork River, the Collins River and the East Fork of the Stones River. The property is part of nearly 1000 acres which will feature small game hunting, hiking and wildlife viewing opportunities for public use. Everyone is encouraged to come be a part of the ceremony. The event is free.
