Brainerd, MN~Minnesota's Fourth of July Capital

Brainerd,MN ~Minnesota's Fourth of July Capital

Despite the economy, the 4th of July Celebration and the jaw dropping fireworks display will continue, at least for this year. This is mainly due to the efforts of some dedicated volunteers and Nancy Cross , Drector of Brainerd Community Action. There will be 100 parade units down only 20 from last year. The weather is predicted to be sunny with temperatures around 77 degrees and a small chance of rain.

The festivites on the Fourth will start with the Annual Brainerd Jaycees Corn Feed on the Adamson Ball Field at noon. If you like sweet corn roasted in the husks and dipped in butter, you will love this. A little sprinkle of salt and pepper and plenty of napkins will do. The American Celebration parade will start at 4 PM and the musical entertainmetn brgins at 6 PM. Be to see Elvis live on stage with the Blues Brothers Revue. The year's Battle of the Bands winner will perform and the night has only just begun. A fly over is traditionally held at 8 PM and music contiues until the fireworks at 10:15. If you have not witnessed the musically choreographed presentation of oooohs and aahhhhs- you are really depriving yourself and your family of a specatular event.
