A Sand-sational Way to Greet Summer

Is it time to hit the beach?  Well, maybe not quite yet but a trip to Governor’s Square Mall will make you feel like you’ve arrived.  Center Court will soon be the home to It’s a Sandsational Celebration.  From April 26 through 28, professional sand sculptors will turn over 20 tons of sand into a unique work of art that honors the men and women of the United States military  Spectators are welcome to stop by, watch the sculptors work and maybe even pick up a few tips for your own creations.  It’s a Sandsational Celebration, sponsored by 5 Star Media Group, will be on display in Governor’s Square Mall’s Center Court for 12 weeks. 

The creative force behind It’s a Sandsational Celebration will be sculptor Matt Long.  Since 2001, Long has created innumerable sand sculptures around the world for competitive, civic and corporate events.  He has placed in four World Championship competitions and was a cast member for the Travel Channel show Sand Masters.  He has created sand sculptures in far-flung venues like Thailand, New Zealand and New York’s Times Square.  Assisting Long will be fellow sculptors Brian Belcher, Brian Wigglesworth, Andy Daily, Greg Grady, Karen Fralich and Matthew Deibert.

Governor’s Square Mall, located at 2801 Wilma Rudolph Boulevard in Clarksville, Tennessee, has been serving the community since 1986.  It comprises over one million square feet of retail space, anchored by Dillards, Belk, JCPenney, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Target, Ross Dress for Less, and Burlington, plus more than 100 other specialty shops and services.  For more information, visit online at www.governorssquare.net.  Governor’s Square Mall is owned and operated as part of the Cafaro family of companies, based in Niles, Ohio.  For more information, log onto www.cafarocompany.com.
