The
4th of July Fireworks Display
at Meeks Park was better
than ever. A huge crowd
attended the anticipated
event.
Vehicles lined up on the
sides of Highway 515 and
crowds filled most of Blairsville's
parking lots. Meeks Park
was crowded with people
in lawn chairs and sitting
on blankets. Children had
flags and sparklers. Two
little girls handed out
patriotic buttons. Some
folks brought picnics. Everyone
enjoyed the wait almost
as much as the show.
It was an exciting 4 th
of July celebration. Fireworks
lighted up the sky and the
loud “booms” could be heard
for miles. Children and
adults watched with wide
eyes.
Special
appreciation and thanks
to the Blairsville Union
Chamber of Commerce for
all their hard work and
also to the many officers
and firemen that helped
keep everything safe and
orderly. Happy 230th Birthday
America!
