Roane County leaders, churches, organizations, police officers, and firemen invite everyone to join them on Monday, August 1, at Roane State Community College as they unite together to celebrate the strength of Roane County while also praying for those communities who have had recent tragedies. The event will be held from 7:30-8:30 p.m. August 1 in the student lounge and will include a candle-lighting ceremony.
“The purpose of this event is to celebrate who we are and who guides us,” said Roane County Commission Chair Ron Berry. “That is what makes us stronger—standing united and loving one another regardless of our differences. So everyone is invited to come out and stand united, and help build an even stronger community.”
