The day started at 10am with patriotic events such as the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem and was followed by a parade where citizens decked out their cars, tractors and motorcycles in the red, white and blue and made sure the whole town was awake.  There was a dog parade and show, plenty of hot dogs to eat and fun at the pool.  By evening, “Elton John” was performing on stage and the evening ended with a spectacular fireworks display.

My wife, son and I had a great time and were honored to be a part of such a special event.
