Washington Gets a Jump on the 4th

Posted: July 3, 2009 @ 6:43 am In Today's Local News

Washington residents kicked off 4th of July festivities last night with patriotic music from the municipal band, and blasts from a homemade cannon. Retired Army Artillery Commander Wayne Gamon constructed the cannon. He says it’s in his blood, and was fun to build. The cannon fire accompanied the “Stars and Stripes Forever.” Municipal band conductor Tom Macnimar says their annual “Liberty Concert” just wouldn’t be complete without it The festivities continue this weekend in Washington County. Our website has a listing of Fireworks displays, and stay tuned to KCII for patriotic music this 4th of July weekend.
