Downtown Lake Worth will be exploding with activity during the entire Fourth of July.

Programs of Events and Location of Events will be available throughout the entire town and in Bryant Park on the 4th of July.

Children’s Activities take center stage all over town.

Javier Del Sol, Children’s Pied Piper of the Lake Worth 4th of July Celebration, will be coordinating an Interdependence Day for all children who come to town.  Meet in the Cultural Plaza at noon for an abundance of activities.  Artists and musicians will greet your children with arts and crafts projects, games, contests, dance and music.  Children will make costumes for the costume contests, hats for the hat contests and decorate bikes for the bike and stroller contest.  Javier will lead groups of children through town to each of the contests during the day.  Artists and musicians will remain in the park with other children continuing the activities.

 

1:00 PM the children will go up to Bee’s Knees to participate in the Costume Contest.   

3:00 PM the children will attend the water melon eating contest at Nature’s Way Café.

4:00 PM the children will take their decorated hats to L-Brehm’s Hat Shop for the Hat Contest.

5:00 the children will be led to Bee’s Knees once again for the Bike and Stroller Decorating contest.

 

Throughout the day the children will be able to visit the petting zoo at Lake and L streets and feed the tortoises outside of Bee’s Knees.  Children will be able to work on the clay mural at Clay Glass Metal Stone Gallery.  This mural will be cut into tiles and donated to a local public school.

 

Lake Worth will be filled with events for adults as well.  Most shops and restaurants will be cooking in the streets and having holiday gifts and specials for visitors.  The day starts with the Great American Raft Race in Bryant Park and ends with spectacular fire works at the same location.
