The theme for the 2016 celebration is America The Beautiful. Just look around Grant County... it's absolutely beautiful. There will be a wonderful parade in the morning. Lots of food and vendor booths in Gough Park through-out the day with some great entertainment to listen to or you can even dance if you wish. Then when the evening sky gets dark, have a place picked out to watch the grand finale of the evening... the Silver City - First American Bank Fireworks Show.
