City Park is transforming for a bigger, bolder July 4th celebration called Celebrate Freedom, with stars painted on the grass and a full lineup of talent including the Shining Stars Dance Academy, the Doorway Singers, and the U.S. Navy Fleet Forces Wind Ensemble.

Superintendent Shawn Hopson calls it a “hidden gem” and vows to be first and best.
