Independence Day Celebration this weekend in city park

The park in the City of Grant will be alive and full of energy this Saturday when the Chamber hosts the annual Fourth of July Celebration. 

Due to the fourth falling on a Sunday this year, the event was moved to the third, Saturday, for convenience of attendees. 

The fireworks show will still be held on Sunday evening at dusk, making the weekend packed full of fun activities with something for everyone!
