A Fundraising Event for the Mississippi River Corridor – Tennessee
Come join us on Saturday, November 10th as we ride to Randolph Bluff and its beautiful location on the Mississippi River. When you arrive, we will provide you with great food and beer - if you’re not riding the 48-mile loop…and other drinks, plus great music. We also encourage you to invite guests to join you and the other riders at Randolph Bluff! The current low water on the River also affords unique opportunities to explore the riverfront and walk across to what is typically a river island. We hope to see you on Saturday, November 1st!
