During the presentation, students met and were entertained and encouraged by the Titan’s, “T-Rac,” along with the state parks system mascot, Ramble, the raccoon. The two, along with regular partners from both the Titans and Tennessee State Parks, have given more than 159 school programs to more than 91,000 Tennessee middle and elementary school students.
