Things to do in Virginia: July 4th Edition

Have you procrastinated making 4th of July plans? Are you frantically texting your friends to figure out what to do? Do you want an excuse to flake on your existing plans? No matter what your reason is, if you’re looking for something to do tomorrow, or over the long weekend, we’ve got you covered.
