Celebrate 236 years of American Freedom

Because these men risked their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor — and because countless others stood tall for freedom — we have the blessings of liberty we cherish to this day. It is right to celebrate their accomplishment and the heritage that rightfully belongs to every American.

Cameron Park will host its Summer Spectacular on Saturday, June 30, at Cameron Park Lake. The gates will open at 2 p.m. This event attracts thousands of people every year, and no wonder. There is great food, great exhibits, a carnival, live music and a world-class fireworks display. There is a small fee to attend this event (pre-sale wristbands are $3, at the gate they are $5). A portion of the wristband sales will go to support the Food Bank of El Dorado County. Wristbands can be purchased at the Cameron Park CSD, Walgreens, Cameron Park/Shingle Springs Chamber of Commerce and Caffé Santoro. For more information call (530) 677-2231 or email cpcsd@cameronpark.org.

The grand finale will be the Town Center fireworks show.
