Attention, Williamson County families! Come out for Franklin Parks’ annual Family Day on Saturday, November 1 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at The Park at Harlinsdale Farm (239 Franklin Road, Franklin).
For the second year in a row, Actor and Humanitarian Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band (LTDB) will perform. The band, a program of the Gary Sinise Foundation that uplifts veterans, first responders and their families, is named after Gary’s iconic portrayal of “Lieutenant Dan Taylor” in the Academy Award-winning film Forrest Gump. The concert kicks off at 12 p.m after the family activities.
“We are so excited to salute the service of our local veterans, first responders, their families and the cities they serve right here at home with a performance by our Founder and local resident Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band,” says Donna Mercier, Executive Director of the Gary Sinise Foundation.
The festival features activities like miniature train rides, hay rides, pony rides and a petting zoo. Festival attendees can also enjoy cane pole fishing in the pond. All rides and activities are free to attendees.
In addition, many horse-related events will happen in the Tractor Supply Arena this years. Food will be offered for purchase by local food vendors. Family Day activities will wind down once the concert starts.
