Kimi Brown, Friends of Mocha Nolo and Mason Health Collaborative, LLC presents the first offical Nolensville Juneteenth gathering. This event is centered on connection, celebration, and honoring the rich history of Historic Sunset Park. During segregation, the park served as a vibrant gathering space where Black families came together for picnics, baseball games, recreation, and fellowship. It was home to entrepreneurs such as Jim and Ben Chrismon and welcomed notable figures like Theodore “Ted” Rhodes, the nation’s first Black professional golfer, who practiced on its three-hole course. The park also helped shape athletes like Woodrow Williams, who later played professional baseball.Today, Historic Sunset Park resides on private property owned by the Brown family, whose longstanding connection to the site has helped preserve its history and significance within the community. While the park has not been actively used for decades, its legacy remains deeply rooted in Nolensville. This event seeks to reintroduce that legacy by bringing people together once again across generations and backgrounds to celebrate freedom, culture, history, and community connection.
We are especially grateful to have Kimi Brown, representing the Brown family, actively assisting in organizing and supporting this gathering as we work to respectfully honor the history and significance of the property and community while celebrating Juneteenth.
