Happy 4th of July

Today our country celebrates its 236th birthday. It has been 236 years since our founding fathers signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776. Telling England to screw off, we're running our own country.

There are a number of events going on today around Morgantown.

At the Hazel Ruby McQuain Park the schiedule is:

11:00 AM Morgantown Municipal band performance.

6:30 Manette Steel Drum Band. In case anyone did not know it, the father of the Steel Drum Dr. Ellie Mannette  is also a professor at WVU, he has also performed with the Coral Reefer Band and Jimmy Buffett on occasion. Might be one worth going to see, a true legend and the inventor of a Musical Instrument.

7:30 are the Community Awards.

8:30 Mon River Big Band

9:45 Fireworks.


Enjoy your 4th of July.
