Chattanooga, Don’t Lose This One

  • Sunday, October 6, 2024

The 3 Sisters Bluegrass Festival just happened this weekend and it was fantastic. The weather was perfect and the music was outstanding. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the festival.

Not since The Bessie Street Strut have I run into so many friends and past acquaintances.

Much thanks to the patriarch of this festival, his 3 Sisters and the entire Fletcher Bright family. This is a wonderful gift to the city of Chattanooga and Hamilton County.

And I hope if the need arises to help with the financing of this festival, Chattanooga would not hesitate to do so.
