📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE: Independence Day Celebration Postponed

After watching the weather closely all week and waiting until we entered the 48-hour window when forecasts become more reliable, we have made the difficult decision to postpone this Saturday's Independence Day Celebration (originally scheduled for July 11th).

This decision was not made lightly. We consulted with both our Maintenance team and the Police Department to carefully assess the risks to attendees and the site, and ultimately determined that the forecast is too unfavorable to move forward safely. Out of an abundance of caution, we are rescheduling the event to:

🗓️ Saturday, August 29th, 2026

We know this is disappointing news, and we share that disappointment. Please know that the safety of our community, vendors, and staff is always our top priority.

🎪 What about our vendors?
We will be reaching out to each vendor individually to determine their availability for August 29th. If any vendor spaces open up as a result, we will reopen the application process.

👉 Look for an update early next week with more information on vendor opportunities.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We can't wait to celebrate with you on August 29th!
