Rock to Stop the Quarry featuring Cicada Rhythm and Special Guests

 — (EST, UTC-05) — (EST, UTC-05)

Low Star Farm, 473 Old Commerce Extension, Athens

This is a event to band together and raise awareness to prevent a large 900 acre Rock quarry from entering our community. The proposed quarry would be built in sections of North Athens in Jackson County on top of the largest ground water recharge area in the region. It would also be very close to the North Oconee River a few miles upstream from the ACC water treatment plant. The company responsible for the quarry has a long history of environmental violations, and pose a serious threat to the water and air quality in the area. The Commissioners will vote Nov 18th 2024 to allow this or not. Proceeds will go to efforts to prevent this from happening.

Cicada Rhythm and more special guests will be performing. Due to the early sunsets Event doors will open at 1pm. Music will start at 2 and over by 6pm. Music is rain or shine, if it rains music will happen under the back porch roof of the farm house.
