Celebrate your community’s pride and patriotic spirit throughout July 4. This year’s Spirit of Independence will be chill with pops of excitement and end with a bang! Some events and activities require pre-registration and separate wristbands. Find full details below and sign up in advance for the events you plan to attend.
During the Fireworks over Verrado display, the sky over Verrado will light up on the Fourth of July night. Bring your blankets and lawn chairs and head over to the Verrado Golf Club driving range to view the show up close. Please note you must have a wristband to enter the viewing area. They’re scheduled to go off at approximately 9 p.m., weather permitting. Parking is extremely limited. If possible, plan to carpool, walk, bike or golf cart to your desired locale.
Here’s what’s on tap:
Wednesday, July 3 / 8 pm Movie in the Park: The Sandlot – Village Green
Bring your chairs and blankets and join us on the lawn for a screening of “The Sandlot,” a summer movie favorite.
Thursday, July 4 / 8 – 9:30 am Independence Day Walk n Wheel – Center on Main Parking Lot
All non-electric wheels are welcome. Decorate your bikes, trikes, scooters, rollerblades, strollers, and wagons in this low-paced walk on Main Street around Village Green. Registration and waiver are required.
Thursday, July 4 / 9:30 am – 12:30 pm – Patriotic Party @ Heritage Swim Park
Cool off with wet-and-wild fun to kick off the July 4 celebrations. During the Patriotic Party, enjoy waterslides, festive tunes, coffee truck offerings, and photo ops.
Please note that due to safety concerns, capacity is limited and may sell out before registration closes. Pre-registration, completed waiver, and wristbands are required. Register for the party by June 23. Wristbands can be picked up at The Center on Main between June 24 – 28 from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.
Thursday / 7 pm – 9:00 pm – Fireworks Over Verrado @ Founders Golf Course (driving range)
Bring your blankets and lawn chairs to the driving range for the fireworks display over Verrado. Capacity is limited, and the area will be fenced; pre-registration and wristbands are required. You can register for the fireworks viewing by June 23. Pick up your fireworks wristbands between June 24 – 28, 10 a.m. – 7 p.m
BTW, you’ll also be helping to celebrate our own 48th wedding anniversary – my wife and I got married on the bi-centennial and have been able to enjoy fireworks for a very long time, even though it seems like it was just yesterday. 🙂
Hey, you gotta love Verrado!
