Mercer County, just a short drive away, starts their 4th of July celebrations in June with the Mercer County Freedom Festival on June 28 at Mercer County Park in West Windsor. The day starts with a hot-rod car and truck show and then segues into a full-out festival with live bands, water rides, craft vendors, a children’s play area and lots and lots of great food. Of course, once the sun goes down, the skies will light up with a dazzling fireworks show that may be the end of this festival, but is just the beginning of your red, white and blue celebrations in your all-American Chevy.
Medford Township Independence Day Celebration
Thursday, July 3, 2014
Another way to make Independence Day stretch out over several days is to mark your calendar for July 3 and plan on going to Freedom Park in Medford Township. Freedom Park, also known as Medford Park, is at the corner of Jones Road and Old Marlton Pike, only a half hour from Burlington Chevy.
Put the kids in the truck and get there by 5 pm for the Kids Zone activities and fantastic fair food like cheesesteaks, funnel cakes, cotton candy and fried Oreos. It may not be stacked with nutrition, but man, it tastes good. Local musicians and area bands will take the stage around 6:30 and play until it’s time for the fireworks. Then at 9:15 pm the booming explosions begin, sure to be accompanied by oohs and aaahs and a few squeals.
