The home opened the large gates and welcomed an estimated 200 guests to one of the most tended Civil War Historical attractions in Middle Tennessee.

Guests were treated to delicious savory delectables by local restaurants, bistros, franchises, wineries, distilleries and the very generous Patel family of Stones River Total Beverage in Murfreesboro.
