Video: Fireworks Fly Over Powder Springs

Powder Springs concluded its 17th annual Independence Day Celebration in typical fashion on Wednesday: with a bang.

Light rain did put a damper on things in the beginning. But the storm moved on by early evening, clearing the way for food, live music, children's activities and, of course, fireworks.

What appeared to be several thousand people lined the streets of downtown and surrounding area businesses and parking lots to watch.

You can see a photo gallery of this year's event , and a video from last year's celebration .
