2016 Pumpkin Patch

Doctors Kemp and Rice and the entire Kemp Orthodontics team are excited to announce that they have partnered with the Cooper Trooper Foundation to sponsor The 2016 Pumpkin Patch, held each year in Franklin at the corner of Mallory Lane and Cool Springs Boulevard. The Pumpkin Patch is a major fundraising event in Franklin with 100% of the profit going to the Cooper Trooper Foundation to help families fighting childhood cancer. This year The Pumpkin Patch will be open from October 1 - 31. Each weekend the Patch will feature special activities, including face painting, inflatables, and games. In addition to these activities, Kemp Orthodontics is sponsoring a pumpkin carving contest we call "Carve out your Perfect Smile."

On specific weekends at The Pumpkin Patch, people who purchase pumpkins from the Patch will receive a free Kemp Orthodontics Pumpkin Carving Kit that they can use to create a beautiful smile on their Pumpkin Patch purchased pumpkin. To enter your pumpkin in the Kemp Orthodontics contest, simply carve out your Pumpkin Patch Pumpkin's perfect smile, then take a picture of the pumpkin, and load the photo to your favorite social media (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram) using the hashtags #ctfpumpkinpatch and #carveforKO. Contest entries must have these hashtags to enter the contest. All contest entries must be posted on the internet by midnight on Halloween, October 31. The winner of the contest will be selected by Cooper himself, and the announcement of the winner will take place on Friday, November 4, on the Kemp Orthodontics Facebook page.

The winner of the Carve out your Perfect Smile contest will receive a certificate for $1000 toward future orthodontic treatment at Kemp Orthodontics.

The Kemp Orthodontics team will be in The Patch on Saturday, October 29. Please come out and join us to buy pumpkins or just to say, "Hello." Welcome Fall to Franklin by coming out to The Pumpkin Patch and Carve out your Perfect Smile!

Kemp Orthodontics Raises the Roofs for Friends of Franklin Parks

In 1986 when Dr. Kemp opened Kemp Orthodontics, Williamson County featured wide open farmland and large areas of green space. Many of those farms had been worked by the same families for over 100 years. Since our opening day in 1986, we have seen many of those farms come to serve a new purpose as they became the neighborhoods filled with the homes of the many new families who have come to make their homes in Williamson County. Dr. Kemp and Dr. Rice are excited to welcome new families and new neighborhoods to our county. However, we are also mindful of the need to set aside some of our farmland so that the new families of the future can catch a glimpse of the natural beauty of Williamson County. To that purpose, Kemp Orthodontics is a proud sponsor of one of the central fund-raising initiatives of the Friends of Franklin Parks.

On August 20, 2016, Kemp Orthodontics will serve as the Premier Sponsor for the annual “Raise the Roofs” afternoon at Harlinsdale Park near downtown Franklin. Harlinsdale was the former home of the Harlin family and was well known for its role in horse raising and horse-centered events. This year’s Raise the Roofs will feature many horse-centered events including a polo match. Food will be offered by many of Franklin’s best-loved restaurants, and there will be live music.

Join Kemp Orthodontics as we Raise the Roofs to preserve our parks and green space of beautiful Williamson County. Who knows – you might even see the Doctors in their work boots working in the horse barn!
