August 2025

Speaker: Tim Burchett – U.S. Representative

Come join us for a delicious dinner on Tuesday, August 15, and hear from Tim Burchett. Rep. Burchett took office in January 2019, after serving eight years as mayor of Knox County. Thanks to natural growth and good stewardship of taxpayer dollars, his administration was able to build new schools, launch infrastructure projects, and pay down debt—all without raising taxes. Prior to his tenure as Knox County Mayor, he started a successful small business before serving 16 years in the state legislature, four years in the State House followed by 12 years in the State Senate. Rep. Burchett currently serves on the House Committees on Oversight and Accountability; Foreign Affairs; and Transportation and Infrastructure.. Let’s give Tim Burchett a warm RWRC welcome!

The dinner meeting begins on Tuesday, August 15, at 6 pm at the Carriage Lane Inn, 337 East Burton Street, Murfreesboro.
