The Band Perry Live In Greeneville!
| |
Never in the recent history of Greeneville and Greene  County has there been such a team effort to present a nationally-advertised event for this community. The Partnership is working closely with departments from the city, county and state to coordinate The Band Perry Concert Saturday, March 30, at 6 p.m. on Main Street in downtown historic Greeneville. The Partnership has arranged for a shuttle service to provide transportation to the downtown area from Hal Henard School and the Greene County Fairgrounds. Ten buses will be transporting concert-goers into the area to join what will most certainly be one of the largest crowds ever in historic downtown Greeneville. The shuttles will begin at noon and continue throughout the event. For more information on the concert, contact the Partnership, 638-4111, or call the Town of Greeneville information line, 639-7106. Concert information will also be posted on the Partnership's Facebook page, www.facebook.com/GreeneCountyPartnership, and our website, GreeneCountyPartnership.com.
