Summer in Park City is officially in full swing!  Despite a lack of rain, which wisely forced the cancellation of all fireworks on the 4^th of July, visitors and residents alike enjoyed plenty of entertainment over the holiday.  Last year’s wildly popular performers, The Soulistics, returned once again to headline the July 3^rd evening concert.  The Salt Lake City-based band combines powerful horns, a rocking rhythm section and searing vocals to bring the music of funk greats such as James Brown, Aretha Franklin and Earth Wind & Fire to their shows.

Wednesday morning started off early with the traditional pancake breakfast and 5K run.  Spectators enjoyed the 11:00am flyover by the Air Force to announce the start of the parade.  Food, beverages, and live musical entertainment were served in City Park throughout the day.  And, of course, the Rugby games continued into the evening.  All in all, it was a great day to celebrate our nation’s independence.
