BEDFORD - JULY 4, 2022 - What is the Fourth of July without the celebration of the Nation's Independence without fireworks display. Bedford Mayor Sam Craig worked to bring back this long tradition for Bedford residents for the last three years.
This evening the fireworks will be set off from Wilson Park just at dark or around 10:00 p.m. Wilson Park itself will be closed to the public. All the fireworks will be aerials which will put on a spectacular show for kid of all ages.
A new event that just started this year, is Family Fun Day at Thornton Park. This will take place from noon until 6:00 p.m.
