901 day presents 24 hours to let your city pride show!
We can comment on Poplar’s potholes any other time. Let’s enjoy some hater-free fun for a day—because this celebration only comes once a year, and who better to make the most of it than you, a tried and true believer of the Bluff City’s magic.
lucky for you, there are many ways to do 901 day right!
- Want to make your rounds to all of the eateries we’ve been blessed with? You won’t be hangry, that’s for sure!
- Want to volunteer your time or donate your dollars to your favorite local org or nonprofit? That’s incredible!
- Want to dance it out at a spot where a local DJ is doing their thing? Don’t step on nobody’s forces!
