Since the town will remain its vibrant and happening self, students, residents and visi- tors alike will find nonstop ac- tion throughout Oxford and the Ole Miss campus. Here is a breakdown of this weekend’s schedule. Needless to say, there will be activities for absolutely everyone. THURSDAY Firecracker Bash The fun begins a day early with the Firecracker Bash.
