About our Neighborhood’s 4th of July Tradition
Our neighborhood’s 4th of July celebration goes back decades. Marching bands would start on Perry and, like the Pied Piper, would grow in numbers and get louder as it wound its way through our neighborhood streets. We had BBQs, potlucks, and lots of fun activities for the kids and some very fine eats for the adults. The celebration took a pause before Covid. Fortunately for all of us this year, Rick & Kevyn Andrews decided to test the waters to see if people wanted to re-start the party — Great response and so the party is back on!
