There are two special reasons tor freedom lovers to celebrate July 4th this year – and we’re not even talking about the US Declaration of Independence –  which enshrined in a Bill of Rights religious freedom, freedom of speech, press freedom, and the right to peaceably assemble.

First is the neighborhood breakfast/brunch at the home of Jennifer and Ben Allen, 3785 Jamaica Court.  Starting at 10am, neighbors are invited to bring a dish to share and a chair while kids enjoy playing on inflatables. No rain date is planned.

Second is the annual Greenbrier parade, hosted by parade meister extraordinaire Chris Thiel.  Kids are encouraged to bring decorated bikes. golf carts, and scooters to the Antigua Circle around 3.30pm.   Fire engine #17 will arrive at 4pm to lead the way around Bahama to the Clubhouse, where paradegoers can enjoy snocones, and kids will be awarded prizes in several categories.

Here’s to a Happy 4th!
