Celebrating freedom
If I’m not mistaken, crowds at this year’s Fourth of July parade and Causland Park festivities exceeded those of recent years. Thanks to the Anacortes Women of Today (AWOT) for sponsoring another great parade, complete with fire equipment, marching bank, military personnel, politicians, Scouts, non-profits, emergency equipment from refineries, and more. Thanks also to John Curtis and Bubba Sudz ahead of time for the spectacular community fireworks show. Causland Park activities ranged from speeches at the gazebo to three-legged races in the grace.
