4th of July in Tampa

Interesting 4th of July Facts

Although we celebrate Independence Day on the 4th of July each year, the Declaration of Independence was actually adopted by the Continental Congress on July 2, 1776. Even more interesting is that it didn’t have most signatures on it until August of later that same year.  Because John Adams believed that Independence Day should be celebrated on July 2nd, he became annoyed, and for many years refused to partake in any Independence Day celebrations occurring on July 4th. Fortunately, we still celebrate this meaningful Holiday each July with friends, family, fireworks and gratitude for our forefathers.

Things to Do for the 4th of July

With normalcy slowly returning this year, more and more Americans are anxious to celebrate this year’s Independence Day.

According to a recent article on Oprah Daily , here are few ways you can celebrate the holiday with friends and family:

1. Go Camping

3. Host a back-yard bbq
4. Go boating
5. Create your own bike parade
