Standing Stone Day Celebration

Standing Stone Day was Oct. 10, 2009. Its always on the second Saturday in October and a day that we celebrate our Indian and Pioneer Heritage. Besides all the singing, dancing, unique food, flea market, big car show, laying of the wreath and tomahawk at the Standing Stone, for the second year, the fine folks from the Tennessee Central Railway Museum arrived by Train from Nashville to help us celebrate. There wer train rides from Monterey out to the Sand Plant and back. While on the trip out and back, riders heard stories from Indians, Confederate soliders and early Monterey residents.

A couple of big boosts to the day was moving the Car Show and the performace stage DOWNTOWN. Another big plus was having our amazing American Indian friends come to the Standing Stone for an extended period.

More and more things are being planned for next year's Standing Stone Day. Keep watching at this website and at http://www.hilltopexpress.net for more exciting news.
