2015 Funky Fourth Celebrations on July 3 and 4.

Don’t miss Greensboro’s Independence Day festivities. Events include the Funky Fourth parade on July 4 beginning at 9:30 a.m., music and games in front of the town hall after the parade, the book sale at the Greensboro Free Library, the UCC chicken barbecue, (contact UCC for tickets, [email protected]).    The Fireworks display at the Ballfield will take place July 3 beginning at dusk.

The Greensboro Arts Alliance is sponsoring a square dance July 4th evening in the Tent on the Town Hall green.

The fireworks and festivities are jointly supported by the Town of Greensboro and the Greensboro Association.

Volunteers are needed to help set up the parade on the day and to man a Greensboro Association table at the Town Hall during the morning after the parade.  Would you be willing to lend an hour during this busy time?  Many hands make light work and allow everyone to spend time with their families while enjoying this terrific celebration. Volunteers are needed in the morning from 8:00 a.m. to help direct the parade vehicles on Country Club road, as well as after the parade.  Please sign up here if you have a bit of time to spend on the day, and we will work around your schedule.

Traveling from Danville to Hardwick and Greensboro this summer? Read this

The repair of the Walden bridge on Route 15 will occur this summer.   Route 15 is scheduled to be closed at the bridge, effectively cutting off travel from Danville and points southeast to Greensboro and Hardwick on Route 15.   The project is described here.  The closure is currently scheduled from July 6, 2015 for 28 days.

Travelers should  make plans to detour around the bridge closing and communicate with guests and renters.    From the south, consider routes which avoid Route 15 or use published detours, including the official detour on Route 2 and Route 215  and another unofficial route on the west side of Joe’s Pond.   Another route is from Greensboro Bend to Walden, here.
