Sat. (April 25, 2026) 2-5PMThe 2nd Annual Rutherford Races to Read at Oaklands Mansion (901 N. Maney Ave., Murfreesboro). Unlike a traditional horse race, participants will don inflatable horse costumes and compete board-game style. A giant dice determines how many spaces each jockey moves along the track, creating an interactive and entertaining competition for spectators of all ages. This year, organizers hope to raise $20,000 to further expand literacy initiatives through the Rutherford County Library Foundation. Admission is $20 for adults and $10 for children. A family four-pack, two adults and two children for only $50. Proceeds directly support literacy programs through the Rutherford County Library Foundation.
