You don’t have to go far from home to celebrate America’s birthday.<\/p>\n

The 12th annual community celebration at Lake Meridian Park, 14800 S.E. 272nd St., features a variety of fun and free activities from noon to 11 p.m. July 4, including a large fireworks display over the lake at 10 p.m.<\/p>\n

Groups lined up to perform so far on the main stage include Submotive and The Beatniks. The activities include watermelon and pie eating contests as well as a boat parade and classic car display.<\/p>\n

The event attracts thousands of people, so free off-site parking and shuttle service is offered from Kent Fire Station No. 75 and Kentwood High School.<\/p>\n
