Monroe County will round another milestone in its battle against the COVID-19 pandemic as Fourth of July celebrations will be held for the first time since 2019.
This year, the county has earmarked Key West International Airportâs enterprise fund, which is used for local promotion, to help pay for fireworks displays throughout the county.
The Lower Keys Rotary Club will host Independence Day festivities starting at 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 3, at Monroe County-owned Big Pine Community Park, Mile Marker 31. Attractions include vendors, food, beverages, games, family activities, and entertainment. Fireworks will begin at about 9 p.m. Admission is free, but no coolers, pets, or personal fireworks are allowed. Visit facebook.com/LowerKeysRotary or call Heidi Morris at 303-501-0233.
