New Milford will host It's Fireworks Celebration on Saturday.  Mayor Pete Bass says this is done in coordination with the Lions Club Carnival on Young's Field.  The opening ceremony begins at 6:30pm and the Greater New Milford Women's Club will have their Giant Birthday Cake in celebration of America's Birthday.  At 7pm, Songhorse will performs on the Bandstand.  The event is hosted by the New Milford Chamber of Commerce.  The Fireworks Celebration at the Town Green is set for 9:30 p.m. The Rain date is Friday, July 26.

The New Fairfield Lions July 4th Parade was held yesterday.  Spectators gathered in the middle of town before the 9am start time.  Route 37 was closed so marchers and floats could make their way to Memorial Field, where the parade ended. New Fairfield Senior Center won Best Float while the Girl Scouts took the prize for Best Theme.

Fireworks went off without a hitch at Ridgefield High School last night.  As did Weston's Family 4th Celebration at Weston Middle School.  There were also fireworks at Wilton High School at dusk.
