Salute to Great American Writer F. Scott Fitzgerald

Sept 25-27th A Salute to F Scott Fitzgerald.
In 1935 and 1936, Fitzgerald came to The Grove Park Inn for rest and relaxation while his wife, Zelda, was treated in a nearby hospital. Each year, we salute Fitzgerald, his accomplishments and his association with The Grove Park Inn near the anniversary of his birth in September. On this special tribute weekend, we invite you to step back in time with us, as we experience the music, history and literature of a great American writer – and one of our favorite guests – F. Scott Fitzgerald.
