Hundreds of people gathered in downtown Solvang on Sunday morning to celebrate the Fourth of July with the return of the annual parade sponsored by the Solvang Rotary Club.
“It’s very important to the community of Solvang and the citizens of this state that the Fourth of July is celebrated just like it was two years ago,” said Art Kaslow, the club’s president. “Very important that we don’t lose any of the traditions or celebrations.”
Santa Ynez Valley Youth in Service honoree Olivia Berman is full of gratitude: for her community, for her 4-H club, for her family and her school.
âMy community has made me who I am for sure. All my 4-H leaders have been volunteers who have dedicated so many hours of their lives to make sure weâre prepared for what life has in store for us. The people in my community are beyond amazing, and they have made me an image of what they are,â Berman said.
A graduate of Dunn School in Los Olivos, Berman has been a core member of Lucky Clover 4-H Club for nearly a decade.
