LA County communities mark USA’s 250th birthday in myriad patriotic ways
Myriad Los Angeles County cities and communities honored the nation’s 250th birthday with parades, religious services, picnics, corndogs galore and, of course, fireworks. Among was most poignant celebrations was the return of the Pacific Palisade 4th of July Parade, back on the streets of the seaside community after last year’s wildfire-spurred postponement.
Fireworks shows, as well as displays by their high-tech peers the airborne drones, filled the week — and more were planned on Saturday night.
A grateful Pacific Palisades community welcomed back its annual Independence Day march for its 77th edition after being canceled last year in the aftermath of the deadly fire that devastated the community.
