The evening celebration will begin indoors at 5:00pm with a special service to celebrate our faith and freedom, featuring patriotic music led by choir and orchestra, a salute to the armed forces, and more. Childcare will not be provided for this service. We encourage families to attend together.

Do you have preschool or elementary children or grandchildren? Be sure to check out the booths featuring the programs we have to serve you and your children, including dance classes, sports leagues, preschool, choir, drama, and more!
* Rescue vehicles will leave if they are needed for an emergency.
Special thanks to Applebee's in Raytown for donating food and supplies!
