The event, held to honor Huntingdon’s businesses throughout the years, begins at 4 p.m. with a mock trial at the Carroll County Courthouse. Local attorneys will enact “The Big Bad Wolf v The Three Little Pigs.” Limited general seating is available to attendees, who will act as jurors.
From 6-8 p.m., local bluegrass band Scattered Grass will perform live on the Carroll County Courthouse Steps. Members of Scattered Grass are from several Tennessee counties including Carroll, Benton, Decatur, Henderson, and Davidson County. Performing June 11 are Malcolm Allen, Greg Mann, Alli Mann, Sammy McAdams, “Flash” Gordon Shirley, Justin Reno, and Dana Wyatt.
Throughout the event, from 4-8 p.m., guests are encouraged to take a bus tour or a self-guided walking tour through Huntingdon’s historic Court Square.
