Oaklands Mansion’s 32nd Annual Christmas Candlelight Tour of Homes

| No Comments

Usher in the holiday season with an enchanting tour of historic homes and landmarks. The annual Oaklands Christmas Candlelight Tour of Homes is slated for December 5, 2015 from 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. The tour, sponsored by Oaklands Association will feature beautiful and historic private homes, distinctive churches, and the graceful Oaklands Mansion.

 

In the late 1860s, the Maneys subdivided and sold much of their front acreage into lots to create a residential neighborhood, originally called “Maney’s Addition,” thought to be Murfreesboro’s first “subdivision.” It later became North Maney Avenue, which intersects present-day Main Street. Advertisements for lots in Maney’s Addition appeared in local newspapers assuring prospective owners free access to the Maneys’ spring. In the late 1880s, after she left Oaklands, Adaline Maney moved into a home in Maney’s Addition known as “Big Holly.” Today that home is the property of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Bell and will be featured on the tour.

 

Following the old carriage path of the plantation, stops along the holiday tour include the following historic buildings:

  • Oaklands Mansion, 900 North Maney Avenue
  • “Big Holly”, Mr.& Mrs. Gordon Bell, 718 North Maney Avenue
  • Oaklands Park Seventh-Day Adventist Church, 711 North Maney Avenue
  • Mr. & Mrs. Rhea Cole, 619 North Maney Avenue
  • Mr. Cory Williams, 603 North Maney Avenue
  • Mr. Adam Holsted, 343 Jackson Street
  • Dreamingincolor, Ms. Deneen Glidwell, 504 North Maney Avenue
  • Demos’ Restaurant Office, 503 North Maney Avenue
  • Old Dunaway Store, Ms. Linda Stevens, 312 North Maney Avenue
  • Mr. & Mrs. Rick Cottle, 225 North Maney Avenue
  • Mr. & Mrs. Rob Baker, 217 North Maney Avenue
  • Ms. Kathy Yeager, 120 North Maney Avenue
  • Mrs. Nancy Morris, 347 East Main Street
  • Central Christian Church, 404 East Main Street
  • Ransom Historic House & School Museum, 717 North Academy Street

 

These festively adorned historical homes and churches, dressed in holly and evergreen, will transport you to a simpler time. From the veranda of Oaklands Mansion and along the nine block tour, you will hear the music of carolers from local schools. Warm up with a cup of Demos’ famous chicken-n-rice soup or their award-winning banana pudding, on sale at their restaurant office at 503 North Maney Avenue. While at Oaklands, visit Gee-Ma’s food truck for old home cooking and a “meat and three” menu.

 

“This years’ tour will guide visitors along the old carriage path of the plantation and offer an opportunity to visit homes spanning several decades and various architectural styles,” said James Manning, Executive Director of Oaklands. “Visiting the festively appointed homes on our Candlelight Tour is a popular way to begin the celebration of the holidays.”

 

The cornerstone of the tour is the grand Oaklands Mansion. Interpreters in period attire will guide you through the history of this gracious home. At its peak, Oaklands was the center of a 1,500 acre plantation and one of the most elegant homes in Rutherford County.  Since that time, Oaklands has seen dramatic changes. Following the Civil War, it deteriorated from a majestic mansion to virtual ruins and, in the 1950’s, its very existence was threatened. The mansion was brought back from the brink of destruction, saved from the wrecking ball when a group of concerned ladies created Oaklands Association in 1959.   Since that time, the Association has worked tirelessly to restore Oaklands to its original splendor and preserve its unique history.

 

Today, local residents and visitors alike enjoy the mansion that has been lovingly restored and brought back to its former glory. The proceeds of the Candlelight Tour of Homes go toward the continuing preservation of this historic treasure. Purchase advance tickets (either online at www.OaklandsMansion.org or in the museum shop) by 4 p.m. on Thursday, December 3 and receive a special price of $12.50 for adults.  Admission is $15.00 per adult at the door, $5.00 students and children, free for ages 5 and under.  Sponsorships for the Tour are still available. On the night of the tour, tickets can be purchased at any home on the tour or at Oaklands’ Museum Shop. Oaklands Association is a non-profit educational organization. For information on becoming a member or a volunteer, please call (615) 893-0022 or email: info@OaklandsMansion.org.

Upscale Gastropub in Franklin Community

| No Comments

A. Marshall Family Foods Inc. announced this week plans to open a restaurant in Franklin’s Westhaven Community. The Franklin-based hospitality group has placed a contract on the Westhaven Town Center location at 158 Front Street, Suite 120, and leaders are working toward an opening in the first half of 2016. The 2,500-square-foot first floor will include a bar and grill, with a 1,250-square-foot patio anchoring the front of the restaurant.  Andy Marshall, president of A. Marshall Foods, says the restaurant will have an upscale gastropub feel that provides a versatile menu and family-friendly gathering spot for the neighborhood.

“We believe in Westhaven and look forward to creating a new destination for locals — it’s just a great fit for what we’re all about,” said Marshall. “Families, people who want to have a beer and watch the game, and those who want to meet up with friends and colleagues for a great meal won’t be disappointed with what we’re planning to do.”

Marshall says his team, which is still nailing down concept specifics and menu items, will announce additional details in the coming weeks.

“We’d love suggestions from people in the community about what they want on the menu and in the restaurant — heck, even the name of the place,” he said. “It will be unique, just like Westhaven. We’ll provide details to everyone about how to weigh in, but the best bet is to follow the Puckett’s Grocery Facebook page for updated news.”

The A. Marshall Foods restaurant will be flanked by The Perch and the Westhaven Hardware Store, both of which are currently under construction.

Current tenants in the Westhaven Town Center include the Artistry Spa Salon, Freeman’s Flowers, High Brow Brew, Oscar’s Taco Shop and Westside Wine & Spirits, among others. Kroger, which acquired the Westhaven Harris Teeter earlier this year, is slated to open in the coming months.

This will be the seventh restaurant for A. Marshall Foods, which owns and operates four Puckett’s Gro. & Restaurant locations in Davidson, Hamilton, Maury and Williamson counties, as well as Puckett’s Boat House, Puckett’s Trolley, Puckett’s Events & Catering and Homestead Manor, the hospitality concept in Thompson’s Station.

campaign_14_536About Mercy Community Healthcare
Formerly Mercy Children’s Clinic, Mercy Community Healthcare reflects the love of Jesus Christ by providing quality and compassionate healthcare to both the insured and uninsured in Williamson and surrounding counties – with a focus on Pediatrics, Adult Primary Care and Integrated Mental & Behavioral Health.

Mercy has a staff of more than eighty full and part–time staff. Each of our physicians is Board Certified. Our patients come from more than thirty counties in Tennessee, and even from different states. Why do they come from so far? Great doctors giving great care! In the for-profit medical communities, it is unprofitable to care for the under-served and uninsured. Consequently, 70% of Mercy’s patients are uninsured or TNCare and that’s why we need your support.

  • Mercy physicians work ONLY at Mercy. Every patient has their doctor.
  • More than 10,000 patients from more than 30 counties call Mercy their healthcare home
  • Mercy experiences more than 26,000 patient visits annually
  • In Mercy’s four county (Williamson, Maury, Hickman, and Marshall) service area, the patient to doctor ratio is more than 4,000 to 1. For Behavioral Healthcare, the ratio is more than 6,000 to 1.
  • There are an estimated 50,000 uninsured persons in our service area

Mercy Community Healthcare is known for it’s accessible, affordable, compassionate, whole-person care as we serve our neighbors in body, mind, and spirit. No one is turned away because of their inability to pay.

Complimenting primary healthcare, Mercy provides comprehensive mental and behavioral health services to our clients. Mercy Behavioral Health, begun in 2006, currently has a full-time Psychiatrist, a full-time Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and four full-time therapists providing state certified mental health counseling for our patients and their families. Additionally, our staff works in collaboration with other agencies in our community to provide food, clothing, and shelter.

Mercy has two primary revenues streams; reimbursement for services from TennCare and commercial insurances
(Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, etc) and tax deductible donations ($1 million annually) that allow us to care for the uninsured.

For more information about Mercy please visit our website: www.MercyTN.org

Mercy must raise over $1 million a year to cover the costs to serve our uninsured patients. Please add a donation to your registration or click to the DONATE NOW button below to make a tax deductible donation today!

Scholarship Program

Each spring, based on availability of funds, Leadership Franklin awards scholarships to Franklin/Williamson County college student applicants based on academic achievement, community involvement, and a written essay. The scholarships are awarded at the graduation ceremony of the Leadership Franklin class in the spring each year. To support the continuing efforts of the Scholarship Program, the 2014-2015 class of Leadership Franklin is working to endow the Scholarship Fund to create a lasting impact on future generations of leaders as they embark on their journey to receive a college degree and hopefully, one day, return to our community to work, raise a family, and to continue to lead Franklin towards a bright future.

Happy 4th Birthday, Franklin Art Scene

| No Comments

In 2011, a core group of local artistic influencers gathered to discuss the launch of an art crawl in downtown Franklin, Tenn. On Friday, Sept. 4, the community will celebrate those visionaries’ work as the Franklin Art Scene hosts its four-anniversary event in the 16-block National Register district.

Linda Childs–a staff member at the Heritage Foundation of Franklin & Williamson County–also coordinates the monthly art crawl on behalf of the Downtown Franklin Association. She says the Franklin Art Scene is a champion for Middle Tennessee artists, and estimates the event has highlighted between 400 and 500 artists since its launch in 2011.

“The Franklin Art Scene was initiated to promote local artists and build relationships among merchants and shoppers. We believe it continues to be a monthly highlight for many patrons,” Childs said. “It’s a valuable asset to our downtown, and shows the passion that Franklin has for this community and its unique talent.”

The Franklin Art Scene committee say that they believe hundreds of patrons will turn out for the free event, and that they’ve continued to experience consistent interest and growth over the past four years.

The event boasts more than 30 participating locations and restaurants each month, with locations dispersed in and around downtown—including the Second South District and Bridge Street, as well as Columbia Avenue. As part of the milestone evening, many of the galleries and working studios will serve complimentary refreshments, and some will offer live music.

Free trolleys, provided by the Heritage Foundation, circulate among all the stops for attendees to jump on and off at will from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The Sept. 4 locations are slated to offer a sweeping variety of magnificent work ranges from mixed-media pieces and handcrafted jewelry to turned wood to original paintings. Below are some highlights of the anniversary:

  • Gallery 202–one of the founders of the art crawl–will feature the works of Melvin Toledo, a fine artist who finds beauty in everyday life by painting through oils.

  • heylee b. is hosting Joanna Marie, a local photographer who will display her black & white exhibition of scenes in motion.

  • Shelley Snow will showcase her art at Historic Presbyterian Church this Friday. A Franklin native and watercolorist, she spent more than a dozen years growing up in the Carnton Plantation home with her parents and two sisters.

  • In addition to live music provided by Chaz Williams, Jack Yacoubian Jewelers is hosting Penny Felts, a concept photographer who will be showing works from a dream-based polaroids shot over the last year.

  • Savory Spice Shop is displaying the works of photographer Phil Savage, who embraces black and white infrared images with hand-tinted touches for a surreal, other-worldly quality.

  • T. Nesbitt & Co. is exhibiting Michael Poindexter’s expressive brushwork and well-proportioned draftsmanship, that reference the changing light and atmospheric conditions observed from life.

  • Williamson County Archives will showcase the Southern Charm Exhibit by the Nashville Artist Guild, which offers a diverse array of inspirations. In addition, music will be provided by Barbara A. Stone.

  • Landmark Bank is hosting James Redding, a landscape artist who is well known for the intricate detail and unmistakable realism found in his paintings.
