The Fourth of July.
This date needs no explanation. American Independence Day. Barbecue, hot dogs and hamburgers, and fireworks abound.
But there’s more to it than that. This is the day, above all others, where people set aside their differences and come together as Americans. What better way to do that than with a vibrant mountain community?
This Independence Day, come on out to The Village Green in Cashiers for an evening of food, music, and of course, fireworks.
The annual Fireworks Extravaganza on the Green will take place at 6:30 P.M. on Tuesday, July 4, at The Village Green Commons. Entertainment will be provided in the form of the rhythm and blues band Continental Divide, as well as a 30-minute fireworks show featuring over 1,000 colorful bursts.
Admission is free, however, donations will be collected to help with the cost of the event. Many small communities have eliminated fireworks from their celebrations due to the costs of a large pyrotechnic display, but The Village Green believes it’s important to preserve this patriotic tradition for the Cashiers community.
Food and beverages will be available for purchase, but attendees are encouraged to bring picnics and coolers of their own. We hope to see you all there, and God Bless America!
