I have recently purchased a peice of property in Woodbury off Hollow Springs Rd, and I would like to see more pictures of the area to try and see what the area around our land looks like.
We arer looking to relocate, we have purchased property on Hollow Springs Rd, How are the schools we'll be moving with our 10-or 11 YO daughter by the time we do relocate. Is there any Gyms that have competitive cheerleading, Hows the job market for RN or 911 Dispatching or Facility coordinator positions. Any info is appreciated

Let me make sure I understand. You bought property in Woodbury but have never been there? You plan on moving there but know nothing about the job market or the schools? If you don't mind my asking, why exactly did you buy property there?
There's info and pics of Woodbury at its city-data page. You can check out school info at greatschools.net.
Woodbury is a very small town but is within fairly easy commuting distance to booming Murfreesboro. If you don't mind a bit of a drive you shouldn't have any problems getting a job in Murfreesboro.

JMT, correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think there is really anything in Woodbury, is there? You would have to come into Murfreesboro for everything.

Yeah I'm sure people in Woodbury go to Murfreesboro for a lot of things. There's not even a Wal-Mart in Woodbury although I'm sure there are a couple of grocery stores and Dollar Generals. I've only been to Woodbury a couple of times, and it's a nice little town but you're right, there's not much there. The road to Murfreesboro is a nice, wide, four-lane highway.
I was raised there. Dad was a cop there about 25 or 26 years.Growing up we didn't go to the Boro more than 5 times in ten years.
Here in Alexandria, we only have just over 800 folks here total,,,way way way smaller than Woodbury, and we never go to the Boro, and only my wife goes to Lebanon on count of her job there. Only time we go to the Boro is if the kids have a ballgame there.Small towns are great, they have all you need to get by unless you want to dress like Hollywood.
In Woodbury about all you need is a good horse to fit in nicely. Here is the town square in the heart of Woodbury

Welcome to Cannon County Andrea! 16.5 year resident, married to a home town girl, who happens to be in the education system.
Woodbury is definitely a cottage town, but where you have bought is almost as close to Manchester as it is to Woodbury, so don't let anyone fool you on the area. I lived on Hollow Springs for a year while our home was being constructed in the heart of Woodbury (in all the hills :-)).
We have plenty to do locally, but from where you are, you are a 30 minute drive to Murfreesboro through Bradyville Pike that is not but a few miles from Hollow Springs, as well as about 15 minutes from Manchester.
The town center of Woodbury has some very quaint shops with a lot of locally owned businesses. We aren't a downtown Franklin by no means, but very inviting with more restaurants (fast food mostly) than you can eat at in a weeks time. We have a Drive-Inn theater!! Not many places can say that. We have recently become the newest town with the Auto Zone, O'Reilley's, NAPA wars and will have all three in just a few months, but no Wal Mart - thank goodness. Between the Piggly Wiggly, Bi-Rite, Dollar General Market, Eckerd, Family Dollar, and other local venues, you really don't HAVE to leave Woodbury, but a lot will choose to. With Manchester being so close, you also have a lot of sit-down restaurants (by the way, the Red Barn close to you has the absolute best burgers), Wal-Mart, the interstate, and several businesses (and yes there is a Starbucks and a Waffle House). You can also make a 15 minute further drive (but about the same distance as Murfreesboro) and be in Tullahoma, another excitedly growing retail and housing area.
As for the 911 dispatch jobs, there is a BRAND NEW comms center about 5 miles from you, but it is probably already fully staffed. Again, I would suggest Manchester. There is a new hospital being built in Murfreesboro to replace the aging Middle Tennessee Medical Center and from what I have seen it is going to be HUGE. We also have a local hospital in Woodbury, as well as two in Manchester, and one in Tullahoma (where I was born :-)).
Schools? Your child will be at Woodland, which is definitely one of the better schools in the county as it is smaller and a lot of welcoming family.
Although the area you bought in is typically a farm and poorer area, you are in one of the prettiest areas of the county.

Hollow Springs Road: Flat nice land. Best thing to do is go on a real estate site and type in Hollow Springs Road or do a google street view.
Schools: Excellent. Especially Woodland, where your child would be attending if in the k-8th grade.
Gyms that have competitive cheerleading? No
Job market: always good for RN's. 911 Dispatching facility: small, put in application if you are interested in job. Facility Coordinator: for what?
