Franklin on the Fourth is an annual event coordinated by the Franklin Lions Club in conjunction with the City of Franklin. The event benefits the Franklin Lions Club and supports its mission to serve the community.
There are several changes that will be implemented this year, including strategically located handwashing stations, more space between vendor tents to discourage crowding, and more space in front of the stage.
The Franklin Lions Club meets each Tuesday at noon at Connors Steak & Seafood. Lions clubs are groups of men and women who identify needs within the community and work together to fulfill those needs.
