Story & Photography by Tony Centonze Oak Grove Tourism held its annual award-winning Butterfly Festival at the War Memorial Walking Trail. Attendees enjoyed arts and crafts, balloon artists, face painting and even a zip line experience. The bubble zone is a perennial favorite. There were also food trucks and a variety of vendors on site.

“We estimate about 5,000 people out here today. We’re very pleased with the turnout, and we released 1,600 butterflies this year. The motorcycle show was amazing. The dog show was really cool, too. All the crafts were free for the kids, and this year’s butterfly house was presented by Clarksville’s Milkweed & Honey, that was amazing as well.” said Traci Cunningham.
