Fourth of July Committee Honored By City
The Richfield City Council presented the group with a certificate of appreciation Tuesday night.
Since 1980, resident volunteers have worked hard to put the now multi-day together for all to enjoy. To recognize that hard work, the Richfield City Council presented the celebration’s committee with a certificate of appreciation.
“This is not a city sponsored event,” Mayor Debbie Goettel said as she presented the certificate. “This is all done by volunteers.”
This year’s event begins Saturday, June 30 with the traditional carnival and ends *Thursday, July 5 with the Richfield Ambassador and Junior Ambassador Coronation.
