Vote for Overton Park through 8/31!

Bike Gate

We’re so grateful for all that First Tennessee does for our community and for the park. In addition to providing the funds to create the Bike Gate arch and plaza, they have contributed a matching grant to create a bike and pedestrian landing at the Cooper St. entrance to the park (coming soon!).

To celebrate 25 years of community support, First Tennessee has invited the nonprofits it serves to submit videos for a tribute grant contest. Your vote could help Overton Park Conservancy to win valuable funds! Watch our video and vote for Overton Park here. You can vote once a day through Friday, August 31.

The top 30 videos will advance to the next level to be reviewed by our panel of judges. Twenty-five organizations will receive anniversary tribute grants in amounts ranging from $5,000 to $25,000, for a total of $250,000.

Winners will be announced on Monday, Oct. 1.
