Everyone is invited to get out and enjoy the beauty of nature during the annual Bluebell Island Ramble on Saturday starting at 10 a.m.

This free event is open to the public with all ages welcome. It is hosted by the South Cumberland Regional Land Trust.

Meet on the Elk River side of the driveway to Tyson Foods (13811 David Crockett Hwy./U.S. Hwy. 64 just south of I-24 exit 127).

Participants will walk approximately one-fourth of a mile along the river and explore the bountiful spring wildflowers on the island. There is a short crossing over a stream on a temporary bridge to get to the island.

Founded in 1993, SCRLT’s mission is to conserve and protect ecologically unique land in the South Cumberland area such as Bluebell Island.

SCRLT has also purchased and established conservation easements on more than 1,000 acres in and around Mitchell Cove and Shakerag Hollow, the latter of which was subsequently donated to the University of the South.
