Mayor Of Crossville

 

James Mayberry

Mayor

Dear Visitor,

Welcome to the City of Crossville!  We are located atop the beautiful Cumberland Plateau on Interstate 40, only a short drive to three metropolitan cities.  Our 2,000 foot elevation offers a mild, four season climate year round.  Our rural area offers an abundance of outdoor possibilities, with mountainous wildlife reserves, lakes, streams, and the Cumberland Mountain State Park.

We are known as the Golf Capital of Tennessee.  With nine pristine courses in our community, Crossville has become a golfers' paradise of national recognition; however, the opportunities and activities are endless.  Our Cumberland County Playhouse serves more than 165,000 visitors annually and the historic Palace Theatre on Main Street is always active.  We are also the location of the United States Chess Federation headquarters, a restored railroad Depot & Caboose Visitor's Center, and part of the World's Largest Yard Sale on Highway 127 North. 

Our youth opportunities abound with nine elementary schools and two high schools and we join the State of Tennessee promoting two years free post-secondary education at our Tennessee College of Applied Technology,

Please take time to navigate our website to find out more about us. The calendar of events is a good start to see what events are upcoming that you might be interested in.  We have many civic groups that are in need of volunteers.  We can put you in touch with any that you are either interested in or would like to know more about.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 931-484-5113.

"Crossville, Tennessee, it's just better here."

Fire Prevention and Education

Do you know that Tennessee ranks 3rd in the United States in fire deaths? Over 3000 people die annually in fires.

A structure fire occurs every 62 seconds in the United States. 

The Crossville Fire Department is proud to offer fire education in the local shools and in community businesses. The fire department receives educational materials for distribution in schools from the National Fire Safety Council.  We offer fire education in the classroom, fire station tours, free home fire safety inspections and local business fire extinguisher training.  Firefighters utilize Sparky the Fire Dog robot for education of young children and provide free literature/coloring books for our children.
