As we celebrate American's birth on July 4th, many will gather to honor the red, white, and blue in many cities across the country. From Washington DC to New York City to Los Angeles, there will be plenty of parties, gatherings, fireworks, and barbecues to honor this great country.
With Independence Day falling on a Sunday, this will be a long weekend for many people and a great opportunity to enjoy many weekend events in Sacramento. If you are looking for something to do this weekend, here are a few things to kick off your July 4th weekend.
Community Events
Many local communities in Sacramento will celebrate with events and fireworks. The key to budget travel is to prepare onward. When it occurs to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the truth of expense and budgeting is generally in the back of our mind. Organizing and spending our travel budget carefully is a priority for most families. Reducing expending and expenses, while still experiencing your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed success and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The reasoning regarding saving money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal funds is incredibly small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, whether on a price range or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel expenses!. Here are a few of those events from around the area:
Davis - A July 4th celebration takes place at Community Park with Latin and world music from Yolo Mambon from 5:30 to 6:30 pm on July 4th.
Folsom - Folsom's 50th annual July 4th Pro Rodeo kicked off Friday night and will run through July 4th at Russell Arena. Each night there will be fireworks and laser show as the rodeo features events like carnival rides, chuck wagon races, food, music, and of course, rodeo! Tickets are $19 for adults while seniors and children 12 and under are $15.
Elk Grove - Enjoy the 14th Annual Salute to the Red, White, and Blue at Elk Grove Regional Park on July 4th from 3 pm to 10 pm. Enjoy music, entertainment, a children's area, and fireworks.
