Clean Rivers with Adventures with Purpose
On January 19 thru 25th Adventures with Purpose and other Dive Teams from across the USA will be in Nashville, Tennessee to search for a missing local Donelson man and assist in cleaning up our local waterways which include the Cumberland River.  The Neighborhoods/areas of Nashville that they will be primarily working in are Inglewood, East Nashville, Madison, Donelson and Hermitage.
The days of interest will be January 21st and 22nd when around 17 vehicles will be pulled from the Cumberland River near McGavock Pike where the old ferry use to crossover to Donelson.  Anyone wanting to watch may do so from the Donelson side at the Port of Nashville (McGavock and Pennington Bend near Gaylord Opryland).  Masks and social distancing are required. 
On Saturday January 23rd from 10-2pm we will have a “Drive in” which is basically a reverse parade. It is free and you will be able to see what the divers have removed from our local waterways to promote clean drinking water and a healthier river.  You will remain in your car and drive thru the display.  Keep in mind each vehicle removed takes contaminants like oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid, brake fluid, gas, and rusting metal out of our drinking water.  Please load up your family in your vehicle and “drive in” to “Clean Rivers with Adventures with Purpose”.  We hope you stop by.
Location is Gaylord Opryland Pavilion at the intersection of McGavock Pike and Opry Mills Drive.  Please watch for the signs and for the green metal pavilion
If you have any questions, feel free to contact Karen Bennett at 615-414-6828 or benne...@aol.com
