✨ THURSDAY NIGHT: A TRIBUTE TO DOLLY PARTON ✨

Some people leave us songs. Others leave us a legacy.

Dolly Parton gave the world both.

Through her music, she taught us to dream, laugh, hope, and love. But here in Tennessee, her impact reaches far beyond the stage. Dolly believed in the next generation and understood something incredibly powerful. When you put a book in the hands of a child, and you can open an entire world of possibilities.

Through her commitment to literacy and education, she invested in young minds encouraging children to dream bigger, reach higher, and become everything God created them to be.

Dolly didn’t just sing about love.
She showed us how to love.
She reminded us to love.
And she inspired us to always choose love.
That is a legacy worth celebrating.

As Producer of Miss Tennessee Volunteer, I am incredibly excited that on Thursday, July 22, 2027, we will dedicate our Thursday night production to celebrating the music, heart, spirit, and extraordinary legacy of Tennessee’s own Dolly Parton.

Big hair. Big heart. Big dreams.

This one is for Dolly.

Executive Producer, Miss Tennessee Volunteer
