Head out to Hermitage this Friday for a day-long celebration of Andrew Jackson

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — There's a day-long celebration in honor of "The People's President" today in Hermitage.

It would've been Andrew Jackson's 257th birthday today.

If you're like my family and I, you're always looking for something new to do in town. And today may be the day to check out The Hermitage.

To celebrate, grounds passes are half price today.

That means it's $10 for adults and $6.50 for kids!

The are also special activities for children and a presidential wreath-laying in Jackson's honor today.

Hermitage clinic for disabled patients set to close, cites loss of funding

I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
