Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan wishes everyone a Happy Thanksgiving
Clarksville, TN – As we all learned in elementary school, Thanksgiving is a celebration and a time for giving thanks for the blessings we have received and the obstacles we have overcome.
The first Thanksgiving feasts, we are told, were shared between the colonists and the Native Americans who had helped them survive. Indeed, those early celebrations recognized, at least in part, that without the natives, the settlers may not have survived.

Clarksville Councilman Bill Summers and Family wishes everyone a Happy Thanksgiving
Clarksville, TN – My family and I want to wish each of you a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
Please remember that many families will sit down to a Thanksgiving table that may have an empty chair due to a loved one keeping watch over our nation’s security or overseas in active combat zones.
