Land Property Donated to Trail State Park

WEDNESDAY, 25 APRIL 2007

The state of Tennessee and the Cumberland Trail State Park has received more than 300 acres of land, which includes the Brady Bluffs, Salt Peter Cave, and the top of Brady Mountain, from Plateau Properties.

The land donation was made in honor for Bob Brown, a noted conservationist and champion of the Cumberland Trail, and Arthur Harrison, father of Rob Harrison, the general manager of Plateau Properties. Rob Harrison explained that his father had been involved with Cumberland Trail during the time Brown came to Crossville for business and for hiking.

Kathleen Wiliams, executive director of the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation, has thanked the Harrison family and the Plateau Properties during a dedication celebration last weekend at the Grassy Cove Community Center.
