STAR’s 2025 Bridles & Blue Jeans ‘Leave Your Legacy’
Shangri-La Therapeutic Academy of Riding held its annual Bridles & Blue Jeans 2025 “Leave Your Legacy” fundraiser earlier this spring at its 11800 U.S. Highway 11 location between Farragut and Lenoir City.
In addition to lots of interaction among those who support STAR and its mission came both a silent and live auction.
Lots of tasty food awaited after a handful of attendees made friends with some of STAR’s horses.
The evening’s highlight was paying tribute to STAR founder Lynn Klimas Petr.
Family Friendzy 2025
Family Friendzy 2025, held at Cool Sports Home of the Icearium in Farragut earlier this Spring, featured various sports-related event competitions to crown Knoxville Village Champs and a silent auction to benefit Widowed Parent Relief Project.
The mission of WPRP “is to help build an enduring support system and alleviate everyday stressors for widowed parents so they can spend more time on their family’s mental health and healing,” an event press release stated.
The event began with an Opening Ceremony and featured a special Kids Zone, a designated hour of ice skating and plenty of refreshments.
