Here are the top three stories today in Franklin:

1. When Nelson Turner and his wife, Elva, relocated to Franklin from California in 2019, they felt a need and a desire to connect with others about wine. The couple then went on to launch the Franklin Wine Club. The group will hold its inaugural event at 6 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 11, at a member's home. Due to overwhelming support, the couple had to put a cap on attendance, creating a waitlist for those who want to join for the next event. (williamsonherald.com)
2. The Jeffrey Steele & Friends fundraiser concert is set for its 15th year. The event will take place on March 7 at the Franklin Theatre and will support overlooked and at-risk youth in Middle Tennessee and beyond in the memory of Steele's son, Alex, who passed away in 2007. With help from the Jeffrey Steele & Friends events, The Alex LeVasseur Memorial Fund has been able to build partnerships and lend support to many youth-focused organizations. (williamsonherald.com)
