It's almost time for the St. Jude Marathon! This year, Overton Park Conservancy is hosting a cheering station at Poplar and Morrie Moss Lane so we can yell for the runners as they enter the park. Come join us on Saturday from 9:15 to 1:15 to make noise, dance to music from @illstustudio.llc, and let the runners know how much we appreciate them. @monkeygrass_mayhem will be parked in front of the Parkview to keep you caffeinated!

Overton Park is here for all your pre- and post-Thanksgiving dinner walks! We at Overton Park Conservancy are grateful for all the Memphians who make the park a part of their holiday traditions, and who support our work to keep the park beautiful and welcoming. We hope you get a moment to go out today and appreciate the cool air, fall leaves, and maybe even some interesting mushrooms sprouting on the forest floor. Happy Thanksgiving!
