The Fourth of July is just fun!
Visiting with soldiers back from war. Feeling the energy from thousands of El Pasoans proud to be Americans. Celebrating the birthday of the United States! Along the parade route, people are excited. Flags are everywhere. The Jefferson Silver Fox band plays great march music.

Having Fun on the Fourth
The Fourth of July is just fun!
Visiting with soldiers back from war. Feeling the energy from thousands of El Pasoans proud to be Americans.
Celebrating the birthday of the United States!
Along the parade route, people are excited. Flags are everywhere. The Jefferson Silver Fox band plays great march music. Dogs want to jump and run along. Young marines do a routine. Kids dressed up in soccer man uniforms ‘play ball” all along the way.
Going to the pool and eating barbeque are what’s up next. And at the end of the day, watching fireworks explode into a million red, white and blue stars in the night sky makes us reflect on the lives of thousands of brave men and women who sacrificed so that we might be free.
Keep the faith!
Senator Eliot Shapleigh
