The Celebrate Freedom is put on by the First Assembly of God Church and as it was described to me, it is going to be a patriotic christian celebration, mostly patriotic.

Will there be different events going on at the same time? Some At Timber Linn and some at Montheith Park? Are there fireworks on the 5th? Where are those? I work the night of the 4th. Thanks.
Yes there will be events both at Monteith and Timber Linn… The Monteith celebrations is for the Fourth, while Timber Linn will be continuing its celebrations onto the Fifth, I’m not to sure about the fifth having fireworks… I haven’t heard anything about them but, like I said there will be celebration events on the fifth at Timber Linn…
