Rockwall July 4th Parade - This downtown square will be a happening place - Saturday, July 2 - 11:00 AM.  Mayor, David Sweet, will be on hand to welcome everyone.  There will be lots of action with Parade Awards announced and the Farmer's Market will be open with tons of great fresh stuff.  How long has it been since you participated in an old fashioned Watermelon Eating Contest and Seed Spitting Contest?  Come on down to the square and be sure to save time to visit local shops and restaurants.  The downtown square for Texas' smallest county, Rockwall is the place to be on July 2 - get out & about taking part in the local hometown USA celebration.     

Concert By the Lake - Presents  "Jerry Diaz & Hanna's Reef"  -  Thursday, June 30 - 7:30 PM - This will be a special invitation to Margaritaville, Lake Ray Hubbard style at The Harbor.  Who doesn't like a great Jimmy Buffett Tribute such as provided by Hanna's Reef - enjoy great Texas Beach Music.  As always, a great FREE event and you can bring your own blanket or chairs, cooler & treats....or you can find a good spot on one of the restaurant patios.  An evening of music on the waterfront of Lake Ray Hubbard is a splendid way to kick things off for a memorable July 4th weekend.

Fireworks Show at The Harbor - Friday, July 1 - There is nothing to compare with seeing a first class fireworks display over the beautiful sparkling waters of Lake Ray Hubbard.  This has got to be one of the best "what to do" things on the list for getting out & about in Rockwall County.  Great way to kick off the 4th celebration!  Enjoy strolling along the Boardwalk at The Harbor, listening to music, and dropping by one of the many restaurant and bar patios.
