Darryl Worley has scheduled his 10th Annual Tennessee River Run for September 15-17 in Savannah, Tennessee. Classic rock band Kansas and Mike Slaughter will headline a concert in downtown Savannah while Darryl and Montgomery Gentry are set to play a country concert at Pickwick Landing State Park. There is also a golf tournament, bass tournament, motorcycle ride, boat poker run, craft fair and 5K race scheduled.
