ROAD TRIP DESTINATION : MORGAN HILL !
July 4 , 2015
Welcome residents of and visitors to Morgan Hill ! We really appreciate the many visitors that have chosen our home town to visit for this year ’ s celebration of America ’ s founding . This year ’ s “ Great American Road Trip ” theme captures the spirit of the freedom and opportunity to roam these great United States , and also reflects our community as a perfect road trip destination to gather in celebration of our great nation ’ s birth !
Morgan Hill residents embrace and promote our small-town ambience and spirit of community . We all work together to accomplish community goals , always striving to make Morgan Hill better . Most residents attend at least some of our annual Fourth of July “ Freedom Fest ” celebratory series of events . They truly exemplify all that is great about Morgan Hill . On behalf of the Morgan Hill City Council , I proudly welcome everyone to this year ’ s celebrations of Independence Day . I know you will thoroughly enjoy all the events you are able to attend .
Freedom Fest is produced entirely by dedicated Morgan Hill community volunteers . They work tirelessly for many months to prepare the rich , entertaining menu of events for you to enjoy . They exemplify the spirit of volunteerism that makes Morgan Hill a great community . Thank you Freedom Fest volunteers ! The Friday evening Family Street Dance and Saturday ’ s Freedom Run , Car n ’ Cruise , Parade and Fireworks are well established and very popular . Less know , sort of a “ hidden gem ” is the Patriotic Sing . Held on the evening of July 3 at the Community Center Amphitheater , you will meet exuberant and charismatic Morgan Hill youth who will thoroughly charm and entertain you . After the parade , make sure you view the classic cars in the Community Center parking lot . They will definitely bring to life the Great American Road Trip theme !
We encourage visitors to Morgan Hill to get to know us , savor our home-town atmosphere , and visit our shops , restaurants , wineries , recreation facilities , beautiful back roads and other amenities . Stay safe , enjoy the Freedom Fest and enjoy Morgan Hill !
Sincerely ,
Steve Tate
