July 4th will be a blast this year! Parade and BBQ as usual, but- this year, also: most patriotic Outfit, ATV, and Cake competition, Split-the-Pot, and all that while the farmers market will be taking place as usual on a Friday.
*Thank you Susitna Valley Realty for the generous donation for the BBQ.

Quick question, is the atv competition only side X sides and 4-wheelers? Daughter was going to drive our little tractor but can switch to the side X side if needed.
