Independence Day in the United States is observed annually on the Fourth of July. For most
communities throughout the nation, the traditional celebration includes parades down the main streets,
picnics with hot dogs and lemonade, and, of course, a fireworks display at night. In some towns across the
country, however, special events are planned in honor of the occasion. In Bristol, Rhode Island, fire engine
teams from communities throughout New England compete in a contest to squirt water from their fire
hoses. Flagstaff, Arizona hosts a huge three-day powwow, including a rodeo, for twenty Native American
tribes. The annual Eskimo games with traditional kayak races are held in Kotzebue, Alaska. Two auto races
are always scheduled for the Fourth, including a four-hundred-mile stock car event at the Daytona
International Speedway in Daytona, Florida, and an annual auto race up the fourteen-thousand-foot
precipice at Pike’s Peak in Colorado.
Several small towns celebrate in other unique ways. Hannibal, Missouri, the hometown of Mark
Twain, invites the children to participate in a fence-painting contest, reenacting a scene from Twain’s novel
Tom Sawyer. Lititz, Pennsylvania congregates in the Lititz Springs Park to light thousands of candles and
arrange them in various shapes and images.
In Ontario, California, the townspeople combine the traditional with the unusual by setting up tables
along Euclid Avenue for what they describe as “the biggest picnic table in the world”. In this way,
everyone in town has a front-row seat for the two-mile parade.
