Busy Weekend on Signal Mountain



As many of you know, my acoustic trio The Orchard Band will be playing at the Signal Mountain Business Expo this weekend. Information on the expo can be found at: http://signalmba.com/events/signal-spring-expo/. Mountain Cove Bluegrass will be playing from 11:30-1:30 and we'll be playing from 2-4. When I announced this event, I was reminded of all the other wonderful things going on this weekend.


First, Signal Mountain High School Theatre Dept. will be presenting the musical comedy "Little Shop of Horrors" on Thurs-Friday and Saturday night followed by a matinĂ©e on Sunday. Details can be found here: Little Shop of Horrors at SMMHS.


Saturday night will also feature a performance at the Mountain Arts Community Center by the Uptown Big Band. Information can be found by contacting the MACC at 886-1959 or checking the website at: MACC Website

Bachman Community Center is having a gardening expo on Saturday. Information can be found at: http://www.bachmancc.org/expo/


And don't forget Signal Mountain Youth Baseball's Home Run Derby & Festival going on Saturday as well. As well as the kids' HOUR Derbies, there will be a Dads' Derby, Moms game and several activities.

This is SMYB's annual fundraiser and couldn't come at a better time. There's a bevy of talent in our youth leagues - come out and see them! More info and contacts can be found at: Signal Mountain youth sports

I'm sure this list isn't exhaustive, only a few of the other things I was reminded were happening this weekend. So... anyone who says "I'm bored" this weekend just isn't paying attention! And the last time I checked, the weather is supposed to get great! So come on out for some great music, theatre, gardening and sports!

Look for more info coming up on the "Moms and music" event next weekend!

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your very enlightening Blog. It is good to be informed on what is taking place politically here on Signal Mountain.

Since our current CEO, Matt Fox, has renewed our recycling efforts here at Alexian Village, it is reported that we are saving a good amount of money by having less frequent garbage pick-ups. Maybe the City should consider having recycling pick-up at peoples' curb. This would undoubtedly encourage more recycling and at the same time decrease, or even eliminate the need for an increase in garbage "fees."

Thanks for the invitation for comments.
