For almost thirty years, the Carmel Community has come together each year to celebrate our national and community heritage. Through the Festival, Parade, Fireworks, the Freedom Run, and the Freedom Ball, a black tie social event, this year's theme of Stars and Stripes Together will be exhibited throughout. The goal is to help preserve those treasured traditions and the unique sense of American community that has made our nation so great. There will be great fun, music and
excitement for “kids” of all ages.
