First Friday Street Fair
Today, July 3, marks the annual First Friday Street Fair. The "First Fridays" will run the first Friday of every month through September. The event takes place on Washington Avenue, between 12th and 13th Streets, with the festivities running from 5 PM through 8 PM. Guests will enjoy food, vendors, live music and more! This event is the perfect way to kick off the holiday weekend!
2015 Lions Club July 4th Festival
The annual July 4th Festival will take place at Lions Park on 10th Street, starting at noon on Saturday. Activities throughout the day include live music from The Johnny O. Band, Chuck Hughes and The New Classic Band, food, rides and face painting. The festivities will culminate with a spectacular fireworks display at dusk. Visitors are welcome to bring their own picnics to the celebration, too.
This exciting community event is free to attend, however raffle tickets will be on sale to help defray the costs of the event's production. Raffle winners will be announced throughout the day, leading up to the grand prize winners' announcement shortly before the fireworks display.
Guests are also asked to bring any worn American flags they may have to donate to the Gettysburg Flag Company. This company recycles old flags and sends the stars to military troops to carry in their pockets.
Both of these holiday events are just a 10 minute drive from your new apartment home at Outlook Golden Ridge! Even if you would like to have a cookout first, this still leaves plenty of time to join the community later on in the day, or in time for the fireworks!
What are your big weekend plans? Whether it's trying a new barbecue recipe, lounging by the pool or attending these events, we want to know! Share your plans with us on Outlook Golden Ridge's Facebook and Twitter pages! Have a safe and happy Fourth of July!
