Article by Carli Woodyear

Thousands gathered at Great Meadow for the Annual Wegmans Great Meadow 4th of July Celebration. The event featured more than just the classic fireworks and BBQ. Great Meadow visitors were able to enjoy a rock climbing wall, lasertag, and even skydivers.

The event kicked off with the National Anthem and a choreographed air performance, and that wasn’t even the best part. In addition to the airplane, helicopter, and skydiving stunts, there was a band, a model rocket launching course, a rain machine, and a polo demonstration.

The food, perhaps the most important part of any July 4th celebtration, was delicious, especially the funnel cakes. Great Meadow celebrated patriotism with endless excitement and entertainment! ML
