Join us for a once-in-a-generation celebration of America’s 250th birthday with a full day of festivities right here in Juniata County. This county-wide birthday party will bring history to life through colonial-era demonstrations, music, food, and family-friendly activities, all culminating in a spectacular fireworks display. Visitors can explore a Declaration Station, enjoy live reenactments, hands-on demonstrations, art activities, kids’ games, and fun contests throughout the day. Entertainment highlights include a drum and fife band, a Native American live drum circle and dancing, a colonial dance troupe, and a special performance of “Blue Juniata.”
