Not according to my liturgical calendar, it isn't.
Anywho - this is to be expected in a state that still promotes blue laws.
<rant> If you don't want to work or buy alcohol, or whatever on Sunday, then DON'T! You don't have to pass a law to govern your own consumer behaviour! Some of us need to pick up an extra 6-pack of Sam Adams before our Sunday picnic, dammit!! You don't see any other religious community trying to pass these kinds of laws, the right-wing Protestants don't need to either!!</rant>

Welp, if people in North Georgia want to celebrate Halloween on Halloween and avoid the squeamish in their communities, my neighborhood is open. Briers North expects about 4,000 (no, that is not a typo - FOUR THOUSAND) kids and their families to come play in our neighborhood and trick-or-treat on that day.
