The Urban Campout

The tents will be hung between the trees along the Riverwalk for "The Urban Campout" event. Outdoor lovers will be able to enjoy the campout on Saturday, October 18th. The overnight event promotes low-impact camping using the innovative equipment from TentsileUSA.

Several activities will be held from 5:30 p.m. until 10 p.m. prior to the overnight camping. Participants can enjoy live entertainment by Packway Handle Band from Athens, GA. Other entertainment will include a fragrant fire in the center of the Cherokee Circle and a short outdoor film from the Lookout Wild Film Festival. Tethered hot air balloon rides will also be offered. Carla Pritchard, Chattanooga Presents Owner said, "I think its just so different. We are getting a lot of attention, a lot of interest and again it ties in so nicely with all the Riverwalk events, and other things going on in town. It’s just a good fit."

25-percent of the proceeds raised from the campout will be shared with The Audubon Society and the North Chickamauga Creek Conservancy. For ticket information and reservations visit: http://www.ChattanoogaPresents.com/whats-next-the-urban-campout/
