Celebrate our nation’s birthday

This year marks the 250th anniversary, or semiquincentennial, of the United States recognizing the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. With that in mind, The Miner has compiled a list of events coming up this week in the Pend Oreille River Valley in Washington and Idaho that celebrates the Fourth of July. Most events are free, unless otherwise listed. Whatever you choose to do, wherever you choose to be, have fun, be safe with those fireworks and happy Independence Day.
