Hike 8 miles of trails on the Lula Lake Land Trust then enjoy a twilight concert by local musicians when the fourth River City Sessions at Lula Lake is held Friday, June 7, from 4:30 to 9 p.m. The land preserve is located at 5000 Lula Lake Road on Lookout Mountain.
Gates open at 4:30 p.m., allowing time for guests to hike and enjoy Suck Creek String Band, which will begin performing by Lula Lake about 5:30. (Musicians will have a tip jar for folks who want to show their appreciation for the music.)
After hiking, guests will make their way back to the meadow for the main show at 7 p.m. Singer Katrina Barclay will take the stage followed by a storytelling performance by Michael Gray and Star Line Books.
Closing the show will be Rising Fawn Social Club. This bluegrass, country, alt-pop band is comprised of a group of friends from Lookout Mountain.
