SHERWOOD, Ark. — It's a huge difference in Sherwood this year. In 2020, their annual Independence Day celebration was almost totally empty.
This year, it's a whole different story.
"It's just good to get out of the house," Jordan Hughes, an attendee, said. "It's good to get out here, be free. Seeing everybody walking around, enjoying their time, their food."
The celebration is starting to become a tradition to Hughes.
"So blessed to be out here to do this every year. This'll be my third year," he said.
