    NASHVILLE, TN — The Hendersonville Area (TN) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated will host the 8th annual Chew and Move festival, Saturday, April 27, 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Hadley Park Community Center, located at 1037 28th Avenue North. Chew and Move is a free, high energy event complete with educational opportunities, health screenings, and a variety of children’s activities.
