Shrewsbury Celebrates the Fourth of July
Shrewsbury’s Annual Fourth of July Celebration will take
place at Dean Park on Wednesday. The festivities will start with a bike and
doll carriage parade at noon.
Children’s games and family picnics will follow.
My favorite was activity was always the pie eating contest.
(Helpful hint: Don’t wear white to eat blueberry pie.) I worked for Parks and Rec years ago
when this tradition started. There was a BIG parade from the Town Hall to Dean
Park and a rock concert at night. One year we had a greased pig contest. I
don’t know if anyone ever caught Porky. Maybe he is still hiding out somewhere
in town.
