Stepping Out to Lunch!
Join us on the historic Collierville square for the 6th Annual Out to Lunch, a free concert presented by Main Street Collierville, Title Sponsors Southern Appraisal and Southern Inspection, and Community Sponsors Pepsi Americas and Audio Enthusiasts. Of course, the events held on the Square are always made possible through the Town of Collierville. The concert, scheduled for Friday, October 27, 2006, and will feature Old Man Johnson and the Cooter River Jass Band who will be performing from 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM.
As an off-shoot of the New Memphis Hepcats, this group continues the traditions of early jazz and blues pioneers from New Orleans and Memphis. The seven-piece ensemble plays classic songs from the likes of Louis Armstrong, W. C. Handy, and Jelly Roll Morton along with the music of the roaring 20’s and early small-group swing.
Pack your lunch or purchase lunch from Huey’s who will be on site preparing food. After a bite to eat, take a stroll around the square and get some early Christmas shopping in at the Historic Merchant’s Fall Sidewalk Sale. While the concert is free, visitors to the Square are asked to bring a non-perishable item for donation to the Collierville Food Pantry.
Other activities offered on the Square will include pumpkins, face tattoos and games offered by Collierville United Methodist Church’s Youth in Missions. Proceeds fund a youth revival trip during Christmas break.
“What better way to spend a fall day than on the beautiful historic square of Collierville,” stated Main Street Executive Director, Laura Todd.

Welcome to the Historic Town Square!
What do most residents say when asked why they chose to live in Collierville? "We fell in love with the Town Square." Where do Collierville residents take their out-of-town guests for a milk shake, a cappuccino, a special event, or a stroll in the park? The Square. Since the 1870s when the Square was first donated to the town for use as a park, it has been the center of much of Collierville's community and social activities. The historic Town Square contributes to the quality of life that Collierville residents enjoy and to the success of the entire Collierville business community.
