CLARKSVILLE TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – SpiritFest filled Downtown Commons with activities for families as a prelude to the Clarksville Lighted Christmas Parade. There were visits with Santa, live music, food trucks, live animals, vendors and a canine demonstration from the Clarksville Police Department.

Kris Foust said the event began in 2015 and is sponsored by First Presbyterian Church and Trinity Episcopal Church. “We recognize that people are coming downtown, and there really wasn’t a lot to do for kid and families, so we wanted to extend some hospitality to the community. We wanted to open up our doors, have some fun, have a place to relax, warm up, and eat before the parade started,” Foust said.
