Due to expected inclement weather, the Star Spangled Classic at Bishop Park, Athens’ annual Independence Day celebration, has been cancelled.

“We are disappointed that we won’t be holding the event this year, but we look forward to celebrating next year,” stated Athens-Clarke County Leisure Services Department Director Pam Reidy.
And America wept.
