The excitement for Clinton's America 250 celebration continues to grow as the plans come together. 

Bobbie Perryman with the America 250 Committee in Clinton explains that July 3rd through 5th will be a weekend packed full of activities and attractions that are fun for the whole family. They are leaning into the American classics with multiple baking competitions and an Uncle Sam look-alike contest. 

Edith Brady-Lunny says that it wouldn't be the Fourth of July without a parade. She says that entry forms should be available to the public in May, and there is no fee to participate. 

Perryman states that the Committee has been working tirelessly to iron out all of the details and craft the perfect celebration to honor America's 250th birthday. They have also been fundraising to help keep the event free.
