Get ready for a dynamic new way to experience sports in Chattanooga. The River City Co. is launching an exciting pop-up sports series under the Olgiati Bridge, named SportSpot, opening on Friday, Sept. 6. This initiative aims to engage the community in the evolving “Evolving our Riverfront Parks” project and gather feedback on potential future developments.
According to River City Co. President and CEO Emily Mack, “The next step in the planning process is to create design documents, so it is very important for us to hear more from the community on how spaces could function in the future.” The temporary recreation space will be open daily from 9 a.m. to sunset through Sunday, Oct. 20, offering a variety of free sports activities for residents.
