Take your dog to Cheekwood on an August Thursday for a night of special treats

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The Dog Nights of Summer start at Cheekwood this Thursday!

What exactly is a dog night?

Every Thursday in August, you can bring your dogs to Cheekwood Estate and Gardens for treats catered to four-legged friends.

This includes special drinks stations, local vendors with treats and clothes for pooches, live music and more. The only requirement is that your dogs stay on leash.

It's every Thursday from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., and you can reserve tickets online or grab them when you get there. Don't worry, there's treats for humans, too.

Fundraising underway for Tina Turner statue to be placed in Brownsville park

Fundraising efforts are underway in Brownsville and Nutbush, TN to build a statue for a major superstar who was raised there, Anna Mae Bullock. You probably know her by her stage name, Tina Turner. I was a huge fan of Tina and glad to see efforts are underway to showcase more of her ties to West Tennessee.
