We hope you each had a fun, exciting, and safe Independence Day celebration with your fair share of hot dogs, burgers, and watermelon. The Independence Eve Celebration at Millcreek Common was once again a big hit. The Skate Loop Legends spun around the skating rink, the luchadores tossed each other about in the boxing rink, and the Alta High School drum line got the crowd a-shimmyin' and a-shakin'. The Flying Ace All-Stars flew high in the sky, trampoline jumping in their skis and on snowboards. The fun was capped by a 150-drone light show that lit up the sky with images of the Stars and Stripes, Lady Liberty, and our very own local images, including roller skates and ice skates, Milo the Moose, and the Millcreek logo. Thanks to all of our residents and visitors who came to enjoy the fun. The fun is not even close to being over yet. The Friday Twilight Market and Movie continues TONIGHT at Scott Park.
