Celebrate Independence Day in Davidson (press release)

DAVIDSON, NC -- Citizens are invited to celebrate our nation's independence by strolling from McEver Field to the town green for the Concert on the Green on Wednesday, July 4. The stroll will include a color guard, fire engine, and lots of patriotic residents.

Participants are asked to line up at McEver Field on South Street at 5:15 p.m., and the festivities will begin at 5:30 p.m. All citizens are encouraged to dress in Independence Day attire and to decorate their wagons, bicycles, tricycles, and pets in red, white, and blue. A color guard comprised of members of the police and fire departments will lead the parade up South Street onto Main Street and the town green.

"This is a fun way for our entire community to come together and show our Davidson spirit," said Economic Development Manager Kim Fleming.

The concert begins at 6:00 p.m. and features Radiojacks, a top 40 variety band.
