President's Message

 

The 4th of July (also known as Independence Day) celebrates the date (July 4, 1776) when the United States colonies signed the Declaration of Independence, declaring their freedom from Great Britain. It is considered to be the “birthday” of the United States of America.

 On this day we honor the men and women behind our freedom. The cookouts and concerts are only possible because of their courage . Have a great day, but most importantly, don’t lose focus on the brave men and women—standing and fallen—who keep our freedom alive.

 Have a great weekend and stay safe! 

--Michele Rayburn, FWPA President
