Campbellsville TRACY AYERS / PULASKI CITIZEN

Campbellsville, a community nestled in the north central section of Giles County, is an area that finds its unity in a shared history and sense of commonality rather than an actual incorporation. Historically, the area is of great importance. It includes the Bumpass Trail, the first northern road to Columbia; the Benge’s route on the Trail of Tears; and the Battle of Campbellsville that took place Nov. 24, 1864. The Campbellsville Area Association is a non-profit volunteer group that seeks to preserve Campbellsville’s heritage while promoting its future. The group holds numerous events throughout the year, including an Ice Cream Churn-Off each summer and the Campbellsville Heritage Festival each October, which includes historical reenactments, games, contests, exhibits, food, Clan Campbell history and a 5K.
