CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – The soggy start to Saturday did not deter active duty soldiers, veterans, and their families from attending the second annual Turkeys for Troops. Over 1,500 turkeys were donated to Fort Campbell families and local veterans.
The event was not supposed to officially start until 8:00 a.m. Yet cars were lining College street as early as 5:00 a.m. according to volunteers. By 10:00 a.m. nearly all of the turkeys had already been delivered.
