Gleason, TN, also known as Tater Town USA, is the
home of the annual Tater Town Special that celebrates the special place the sweet potato once held in
the industrial climate of this community. This community affair, held on
Labor Day weekend each year, draws thousands of people back home to their
roots to see old friends, make new acquaintances and enjoy the southern
hospitality that the Gleason community is know for. The Tater Town Special
features a wide range of community events spread over a period of several days,
leading up to the weekend, beginning with parades Saturday
morning followed by a day of activities extending into the night. This is
followed on Sunday by a community-wide church service. This
weekend is also a time where Gleason High School Class Reunions are often
scheduled. Information about some of this years reunions can be obtained
