Independence Day

 

American FlagIndependence Day is a celebration of America's Independence from the British Empire. We celebrate the freedom we enjoy with fireworks and parties. It is a time to remember those that have served this country to protect that freedom for which we enjoy. It is a day of picnics with family, community parades and fireworks to celebrate the birthday of the United States.
