Independence Day

WayneWho hopes you are enjoying your 4th of July, Independence Day, safely with your loved ones and/or friends. We hope that you take time to remember not only those who have fought, but also those who may still be fighting in our name, and in our honor. We owe them much for the sacrafices they have made on our behalf. And while we ask you to remember them, we also ask you to remember what this day, Independence Day, represents.

Independence Day is the day that on July 4, 1776 delegates from 13 colonies declared their independence from the rule of King George III. They did this with a document called the Declaration of Independence, which even on this 231st Birthday of our country establishes the idea of a government that has yet to be duplicated. This document was a powerful rebuttal against a tyranny that had lasted too long. This was the day that would set the tone, and the mindset of a nation. Our Independence had been declared.

Be safe, be smart, and have fun.
