SUGAR PLUM FESTIVALS

Thursday, July 4, 2024


O Say, can you see

By the dawn's early light

What so proudly we hailed

At the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars

Through the perilous fight

O'er the ramparts we watched

Were so gallantly, yeah, streaming?

And the rockets' red glare

The bombs bursting in air

Gave proof through the night

That our flag was still there

O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave

Songwriters: 

David Martin Frank / Francis Scott Key / John Stafford Smith


Happy 4th of July


Today take time to reflect that between 1775 - 1783 roughly 70,000 people died for the American Revolution,  to establish freedom from tyranny and totalitarianism.
