Gov. Bill Lee says this year’s theme is “Untold Tennessee.”
The governor says he will be taking a tour of every county, and it all starts with a visit to the Bicentennial Mall in Nashville and the Blount Mansion in Knoxville on June 1.
“Since 1796, Tennessee has been the portrait of perseverance, character and hope because of everyday heroes,” Gov. Lee said. “As we reflect on 225 years of statehood, I encourage Tennesseans to join us on the road and share their untold stories of people, places and events that have shaped our state since its beginning.”
Tennessee was founded on June 1, 1796.
