Rock Out the Quarry rocks!
By Monica Fatorma
The Rock Out the Quarry event presented by Vulcan Materials on Friday, June 28, was a fun-filled evening replete with live music, fireworks, food, and activities for all ages, including our furry friends. From great entertainment and food, to bounce houses and games for children, there was something for everyone to enjoy.The music lineup included Darryl Little & Friends, New Dimensions and Hunter Hill. Fee shuttles from nearby lots were provided by the city. For many, the most memorable part of the night was the spectacular fireworks display.
Quarry Park, located in the south side of Winston-Salem, was operated as Piedmont Quarry from the 1920s to the 1970s before closing. Vulcan Materials donated the land to the city in 1988 and it was opened to the public in 2017. Quarry Park is open daily from 6 a.m. till dusk.
