“I am excited to deploy this new communication tool for this year’s Independence Day festivities,” said the Town’s Emergency Management Coordinator Joe Dame. “This system will enhance our ability to communicate event information more effectively before and during the event. The system utilizes anonymous opt-in technology, which allows the public to receive messages from Town officials without a lengthy registration process.”
The Town will host its 32nd annual Independence Day Celebration on Monday, July 4 beginning with the Independence Day Parade at 10 a.m.
In the evening, the fun continues at Ida Lee Park. Event gates will open at 6 p.m. prior to a live performance by Kevin Mac & The Homies, beginning at 6:30 p.m. One of the region’s largest fireworks display will light up the sky beginning at 9:30 p.m. choreographed to music.
