Greetings, outdoorspeople!
- Weekend forecast: Saturday, high 77, partly cloudy/ Sunday, high 78, sunny
- Recommended adventure: Celebrate the Battle of Chickamauga’s 157th anniversary during the National Park Service’s week of virtual events, including daily activities for kids. Or, commemorate the occasion by visiting Fort Oglethorpe’s Chickamauga Battlefield park – which made our list of top trails and parks that make social distancing easy. (See the full list here.)
- Most interesting thing we learned this week: In Tennessee, 33% of adults are overweight, while another 27% report lack of physical activity. So, which cities are the fittest in the state? See the list here.
