Thunder Over Augusta

Gerald Jones sponsors the return of Thunder Over Augusta


Thunder Over Augusta returned in 2012 after a year's respite, and Gerald Jones Auto Group was proud to be a primary sponsor of this annual free-admission event honoring our armed forces. This year's event - which took place Saturday, May 19 - saw the Thunder relocate from the banks of the Savannah to a new venue, Evans Towne Center Park. Organizers estimated that more than 25,000 people turned out to support our troops at this great event.
Thunder Over Augusta offered a number of attractions, including military skill and equipment displays, precision motocross exhibitions, skydiving, flybys, and performances by both military bands and country music artists, including Jenna Jentry, Joanna Smith and headliner Jo Dee Messina. The night culminated in a 30-minute fireworks display choreographed to music.

Event partner Augusta Warrior Project was also on hand to provide information and support to those who have so admirably served our country.

Gerald Jones thanks everyone who came out for Thunder Over Augusta this year and made the event such a resounding success!
