Happy 4th of July–Fireworks Schedule for Andover, North Andover


 

It’s that fun time of year again!  I’m so thankful to live in a country where we shoot cannons and explosives into the night sky to celebrate our freedom and not to overthrow repressive governments and dictators.  Around the world there is unrest—Honduras, Iran, Iraq and Pakistan are just a few of the world regions where freedom and the right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” are just a distant hope and dream.  I hope you will take some time this Independence Day to celebrate our treasured heritage with family and loved ones.  Remember always how blessed we are, how important it is to protect our freedom and to give thanks to those who came before us and sacrificed much to leave us the legacy and lifestyle we enjoy today.  To help you enjoy your 4th of July Holiday, here is a list of local holiday events, activities and of course Fireworks!
