With the 4th of July on a Tuesday this year, there are some celebrations on July 3 and others on the actual day. Two celebrations will start off the activities with their event on July 3. All of the events will be offering food, music and family activities to get the celebrations started.
Remember to bring lots of sunscreen and water to keep everyone healthy, as it will more than likely be very hot.
