ATLANTA (June 16, 2016) - There’s no better
way to celebrate the Fourth of July than with a giant backyard blowout, and
that’s exactly what Atlanta chef, restaurateur, speaker and cookbook author
Kevin Gillespie has cooked up for Terminus City’s Fourth of July BBQ. This
festive, all-ages event takes place at Communion, the beer garden-inspired
backyard behind Revival, Gillespie’s family-style
restaurant in Decatur. There will be barbecue, beer, family-friendly
entertainment and games (darts, cornhole, horseshoes) to round out this
one-of-a-kind celebration on Monday,
July 4 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. All
food, drinks and games are available for purchase via
tokens -- $5 each -- with prices ranging from 1 to 4 tokens (tax and gratuity
included).
Gillespie's Terminus City is serving up a
chopped whole hog barbecue sandwich plate available for purchase for 4 tokens
with tax and gratuity included (items are individually priced at 1 token each
if purchased separately). Plate special includes:
· Chopped
whole hog barbecue sandwich
· Brunswick
stew
· Potato
salad
· Coleslaw
· Fried
pie
There also will
be drinks available along with cold beer to wash down the BBQ goodness.
Families can mingle at communal picnic tables and on the front and side porches
of Revival (the restaurant itself will be closed).
All proceeds from
the day benefit Emory
Healthcare Veterans Program, which helps post-9/11 veterans heal the
invisible wounds of war and ease their reintegration into everyday life.
Donations will also be collected via donation jars.
“We want this
to be the ultimate Fourth of July backyard barbecue,” says Gillespie. “We’ve
been doing this every July 4th since 2005 so it’s a tradition for
us. We always support a local charity and this year it’s the Emory Healthcare Veterans
Program. This event embodies what the holiday is all about—celebrating country,
freedom and family. And it just doesn’t feel right to do that without doing
something to help the brave men and women who’ve given so much on our behalf.”
Revival and
Communion are located at 129 Church Street in Decatur. For more information,
