Lone Tree, Colorado is a great community that offers annual events for all residents. Each year the 4th of July Celebrations are worth staying home for. In fact the celebration has been so popular in years past the City of Lone Tree has had to restrict attendance in order for the citizens of Lone Tree to be able to attend.
This means an extra step for residents in the weeks prior to the 4th. It is necessary to visit the Lone Tree Civic Center to obtain a FREE wristband in order to gain entrance to the Celebration. In order to receive the wrist band, one must provide I.D. with a Lone Tree address. Each address is entitled to 4 wrist bands for FREE and can purchase an additional 4 for a small donation.
After waiting a couple minutes in line, I can tell you the wristband are very popular. It seems everyone wants their 4 and 4 more! (This year I have an extra one, maybe I should sell it on eBay?)
Festivities begin early on the 4th with a 5K Firecracker Run/Walk beginning at 7:30 a.m. Registration includes the highly coveted Firecracker Run Cotton T-shirt!
A little later in the day, staging for the Parade begins with a free bike decorating event. Residents will meet at Lone Tree parkway and Club Terrace to pimp out their bikes for the big Community Parade. Parade Staging begins at Jubilee Fellowship Church (9830 Lone Tree Pkwy) at 3:15 p.m.
The Parade will march down Lone Tree Parkway and over to Sweetwater Park where the action begins at 4:00.
The crowds will gather, grabbing whatever grass or tree shade they can find. Food vendors line the park, so there is no need to bring food, just your wallet.
The kids have a ball with all the activities, rides, face painting and all sorts of other activities will keep them busy.
Live bands; High Country Brass, Deja Blu and Hot Lunch band will be blasting sound from 4:15 until 9:00. Sweetwater Park will be the place to BE on July 4th!
At 9:00 the fabulous fireworks begin. They are guaranteed to be good, as long as it doesn't rain or they don't set the field on fire (like last year UGH!). Of course if they do watching the Firefighters put out the fire is almost as much fun...almost.
See you there Lone Tree!
Happy Birthday America!
