Independence Day

Independence Day is celebrated in the United States on July Fourth every year. This is a time to remember our freedoms. It all started with the signing of the Declaration of Independence from Great Brittan. This took place on July 4th, 1776. Fireworks have been a huge part of celebrating Independence Day since 1777.

Independence Day is significant because it is a day to celebrate our country and what it has to offer. It is a National holiday and many businesses are closed for the day. There are often community events with a patriotic theme. Parades, gatherings, barbecues, and of course fireworks are all part of the daily activities.

Many of the events taking place feature patriot songs for the day. You can here some of the most common ones including The Star Spangled Banner, God Bless America, and Yankee Doodle. Spending time hearing such songs definitely brings the reality of how we won our freedom to the forefront. Many Independence Day celebrations solute the military of the past as well as those actively protecting our country.

Patriotism has significantly increased in the United States since the 09/11/01 terrorist attacks. We found out the hard way how vulnerable our freedom really is. People of all ages now understand what the red, white, and blue flag stands for. It has resulted in a sense of unity, and the pride in America is stronger now than ever.
