Plans are underway for the 60th anniversary edition of the American Legion’s Independence Day celebration in Gainesville.
Gates open July 4 at 9 a.m.
The daylong celebration will include “live music, engaging kids’ activities, delicious food and drinks, arts and crafts, and, of course, a breathtaking fireworks display at dusk,” according to Hall County Parks & Leisure Services.
American Legion Post 7 has been sponsoring the celebration each year since 1964. Originally, it was held at the post home. But several years ago, it was moved to Laurel Park.
The rain date is August 3.
