History Hayride Returns

Gerald Melton relays the history of a moonshiner to visitors of History Hayride.

Middle Tennessee history will step into life during a history hayride at Edgar Evins State Park on October 12. Participants will take a hayride through the park while making stops and meeting costumed characters portraying some of the people who made history in this part of the state.

The event, which always sells out, takes place on Saturday, October 12th. Wagons begin going out early in the afternoon and continue into the early evening. Seating is limited. Make reservations now to make sure your place is there for you. The price is $15.00 per person. Online registrations continue through October 10, or when seats sell out.

This is not a Halloween themed event and is not suitable for small children or anyone else who might have difficulty sitting still for 2 1/2 hours. This event is the major fundraiser for the Friends of Edgar Evins State Park. Its proceeds help to fund other projects throughout the year that benefit the park.
