The 4th July (fourth of July) is a patriotic holiday observed in the
USA commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on
July 4, 1776 - declaring independence from Great Britain.
Very few
people will have to go to work on Independence Day and universally this
day is associated with carnival type celebrations … from street parades
to family BBQs, school fairs, concerts, baseball games and other
sporting events - all topped off with fireworks after dark!
Many
families will make the most of the long weekend with this first week in
July being one of the busiest travel periods of the year, as many
Americans will utilise the holiday for extended vacation trips and
family reunions. People in the United States will use this time to
express and give thanks for the freedom and liberties fought by the
first generation of Americans.
The most common Independence Day
symbol is the American flag. Its red, white and blue design is displayed
in all possible ways on July 4 and can be seen in front of homes,
buildings and window displays. Other symbols associated with
Independence Day are the Statue of Liberty on Ellis Island in New York.
What
a great time of year to grab your Coolaz stubby holders [known as
Koozies in the US] and celebrate with your friends and family! Here are
just a couple of designs to choose from, and don't forget that you can
add indivdual names to each of your coolers [koozies] so that you don't
get your drinks mixed up at your July Fourth event this year...
... and for those that were celebrating Canada Day on 1st July 2012 too!
We are planning to arrange a party in one of local venues in San Francisco. All students along with parents are going to come there. They all will be wearing flag imprinted T-shirts and I think it will look awesome and unique.
