Calhoun's Relay for Life Team would like to thank Athens Movie Palace for the fundraiser opportunity this week! AMP is truly locally owned and operated, and they love and love on this community! Over $400 was raised for Relay through a super simple fundraiser at Athens Movie Palace! Check them out for all your movie needs. We think they and their popcorn are the BEST! 🍿🎬💜


Check out this opportunity!
