Independence Day

The 4th of July is a day to celebrate America's independence from England in the 18th Century. Whether you have a barbecue or watch fireworks, we can't help but feel patriotic during our celebrations. Although Independence Day only became a federal holiday in 1941, we officially gained our independence in 1776.

Pocatello will be celebrating with a parade on the morning of the 4th.

As we prepare for our 4th of July activities, remember to take a moment to appreciate the liberty our freedom brings us. As the fireworks light up the night sky, let the light of patriotism shine on us all.
