Saugerties Cancels Part of Independence Day Festivities

The Village of Saugerties has made some changes to the way that they will present Independence Day activities for 2020. As of right now, the parade is happening on July 5, 2020 but it will be done a little differently to keep residents safe. The parade will be done with the emergency vehicles and will be done in a drive-by style. There will be no marchers, plus there will be other, as yet unnamed, restrictions.

According to the Village of Saugerties website, the Lions Club has gone ahead and cancelled the annual fireworks display. The announcement states that this decision was made with great concern and care for not only those who would be a part of the parade and festivities, but also the spectators.
