“Our Airmen and their families are a major part of this community,” said Lt. Gen. Charles E. Stenner, Air Force Reserve Command commander. “The Air Force Reserve Command is committed to being a good neighbor and partner to Middle Georgia.”

Headlining the free concert extravaganza will be award-winning country group, Diamond Rio, and the Air Force Reserve band.

In addition to their four CMA awards, the band recently garnered “Country Album of the Year” at the 41st Annual Dove Awards.

“Last year was another stadium-packed crowd, and this year we are expecting a much larger attendance for this Independence Day celebration,” said Allen Tatman, Warner Robins Civitan Club.

The evening of music and fun will culminate with a large fireworks display.

“Thanks to the generosity of local businesses and the talent of the Band of the U.S. Air Force Reserve, we have an incredible celebration planned,” said Mr. Tatman. The middle Georgia community will have front-row seats to a fireworks display that gets bigger and better every year.”

Attendees are welcome to bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating on the infield. Gates open at 6 p.m. Food and beverages will be available at concession stands. Bags and containers are subject to search. No alcoholic beverages or glass containers allowed at this family event. No pets allowed.
