Upcoming special events in Lakeland include:

Mayor Scott Carmichael will accept the 5th Tree City USA Award to the City of Lakeland.

-Bicycle Event, Saturday morning, May 2, 2009. I only have sketchy information at this time, but is is my understanding that the Small Business Chamber and Junior Achievement are sponsoring a fund-raising bike ride starting in Nashville and ending in Lakeland on Saturday morning, May 2. The tentative ending point is the Kroger parking lot area.

The Lakeland Chamber of Commerce is planning on sponsoring the "end" of the 4 day bicycle ride and will be need volunteer help to make the event fun for everyone and, most of all, promote Lakeland and Lakeland businesses!
