Fireworks over Alexandria

Did you know that Alexandria is older than the United States? 

This celebration on July 10 will mark Alexandria's 273rd birthday and the USA’s 246th birthday.

Festivities start at 6:45 p.m. at Oronoco Bay Park in Old Town. The City of Alexandria has said they are working to preserve as much of the programming as possible, including fireworks.  More information will be available here later this weekend.
