By all accounts, last Friday’s Independence Day celebration at Fountain Park was a big success.
The weather cooperated beautifully, despite the monsoon’s inaugural dust storm the night before. Yes, it’s going to be hot in the Sonoran Desert on July 4, but that didn’t seem to stop too many revelers from coming out and enjoying the Fourth at the Fountain’s festivities.
Kudos to the many sponsors who provided financial or in-kind assistance to make the event a reality. A hard-working committee, with Christine Colley and Phyliss Kern at the helm, assisted by the Town of Fountain Hills, managed to pull off a much bigger event than anyone would have predicted.

It’s only fitting that this community come together in a unique fashion to pull off a hometown celebration to honor Independence Day and America’s birthday. Residents and visitors of all ages enjoyed the party. Let’s do it again next year!
