Staff Report Jul 6, 2019
Thousands ended up taking part in North Port events marking July 4. The Freedom Festival at CoolToday Park, spring training home of the Atlanta Braves in West Villages, was filled with North Port and other area residents.
It was the first year the Freedom Festival has been held in — and outside — the stadium. Despite some delays due to lightning in the area, attendees were able to socialize, eat and play games prior to a long fireworks show to cap the evening.
