3RD OF JULY FIREWORKS AND CONCERT!  Deer Path Park -- come early!!  Wonderful concert of rousing patriotic music begins at 7 pm with the Allentown Community Band -- the oldest community band in the nation and proud of its Sousa heritage -- this is NOT your average little community group!  Following the concert, at 9 pm will be an enormous fireworks display.  We are expecting this event to be packed -- come early or take the LINK bus for free --- see our homepage at www.huntedon300th.org for more information.

NEW!!!!  JULY 8TH --- HISTORIC READING OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE: on July 8, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was read for the first time in Hunterdon County on the Courthouse steps.... at that time, the Hunterdon Courthouse was in Trenton and not Flemington.... we hope by now you all know the history of how Flemington became our County Seat.... The 300th is bringing a historic reading to the steps of the Historic Courthouse on Main Street at 4 pm.  If you missed the January 1 re-enactment, you don't want to miss this.... notable gentlemen from Hunterdon County will be back in period costume for another fun and educational re-enactment!  The fun begins at 4 pm for this family friendly event.... Festivities will end by 4:30....
