The Fourth of July Parade Committee is hosting our Annual Parade on Thursday, July 4th beginning at 1:00pm. Everyone is invited! Come join us for lots of entertainment. The theme this year is, “God, Country, Community, Let us Soar in 2024!” The parade will begin at Second Street & Bustleton Pike and move north on Bustleton/Bridgetown Pikes to School Lane & Bridgetown Pike.

There will be a national test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) on Wednesday, October 4, at approximately 2:20 PM.  The test is to ensure the systems continue to effectively warn the public about emergencies, particularly those on the national level.

The WEA portion of the test will be directed to all consumer cell phones.  The EAS portion will be sent to radios and televisions.

In case the October 4 test is postponed due to widespread severe weather or other significant events, the back-up testing date is October 11.
