Lake Hamilton: Stars, stripes, & Sparkles

Friday, July 3: Lake Hamilton’s Stars, Stripes and Sparklers celebration takes place July 3 in downtown Lake Hamilton near 100 Smith Ave, running from 4 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The free event features live music, a kids zone, food trucks, and a festive atmosphere with plenty of room for lawn chairs and patriotic spirit. Fireworks light up the sky at 9 p.m. to close out the night.

It’s a charming small-town alternative to the bigger city events and a great reason to get out and celebrate the night before the Fourth. Bring the family, grab something from the food trucks, and find a good spot before the show starts.
