The Independence Day Celebration will include both of those events starting at 4 p.m., live music by The Embers at Barrett’s Landing from 6-9:15 p.m., free hot dogs and watermelon courtesy of The Franklin Experience starting at 6:30 p.m., and the event will conclude with a fireworks display over the Blackwater River at 9:15 p.m.
Local shops and restaurants will also be open for holiday weekend shopping and dinner options. “We look forward to kicking off the holiday weekend celebrations with the community,” officials said.
