State and county holiday today!

Confederate Memorial Day today is a state and county holiday—meaning Oconee government offices are closed, except the vital services. On this Confederate Memorial Day the musical group Confederate Attitude will perform southern rock music during a block party in Walhalla that begins at 5 o’clock. It’s the start of a two-day Mayfest spring festival in Walhalla with arts, crafts and food booths on Main Street from 11 to 6. One of tomorrow’s features is a parade of bicycles.
