Summary
Fort Mill is firing up its 54th annual cannon salute to mark America’s 250th birthday — a historic tradition that’s been booming down Main Street for over half a century. Led by the Fort Mill High School band’s fife and drum corps, the event culminates in a ceremonial cannon blast handled by the legendary Short family, who’ve kept the tradition alive for 53 of those years. It’s not just noise — it’s a powerful, community-driven tribute to history, proving that some celebrations are best done with a bang — literally.
