🇺🇸 We are excited to be part of our town’s America 250 USA Birthday Celebration Parade!
In order to allow time for final float preparation and parade lineup, we will not be holding our Sunday Gathering.
We encourage everyone to come out and enjoy this wonderful community celebration as we honor and celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday. We look forward to seeing you at the parade!
