The Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga invites the Chattanooga community to celebrate Independence Day with an indoor, air-conditioned picnic event on Thursday, July 4 at 11:30 a.m. at the Jewish Cultural Center, 5461 North Terrace Road.
Organizers said, "Regionally known musicians Lon Eldridge, Lou Wamp and Lynn Wamp play swing, blues and Western swing. There will be lots of toe tapping in celebration of the holiday. Chicken with special BBQ sauce sizzling on the grill, plenty of summer sides, including fresh homemade potato salad and cole slaw, and tasty dessert treats are sure to make a feast.
Vegetarian meals are available if requested by the registration deadline of July. This is the best Independence Day picnic in town."
The cost to attend is $15 for adults; $28 for two, $36 for a family of four, $7 for children seven to 16, and free for children under seven. Register at
