Join friends and neighbors at Paulus Park as we celebrate Independence Day with our annual Family Day.
Day-long activities include music, bands, beach (daily fee required), BYOB open carry wristbands (no alcohol sales on the grounds; $5 per wristband to bring and enjoy adult beverages of your choice throughout the park grounds), and food vendors/trucks serving everything from hot dogs and burgers to pizza and tacos.
The day culminates in fireworks launched over the lake at about 9:15 pm.
