The annual 4th of July celebration "Red, White & Blue on the Green" will be held Wednesday, July 4 from 4 to 7 p.m. on Summerville's Town Square. This old fashioned 4th of July celebration focuses on families and is hosted by Summerville D.R.E.A.M. (Downtown Restoration Enhancement and Management Corporation).

Events and activities include a magic show, live music, games for children of all ages, jump castles and prizes. Hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, cookies and cool treats will be sold and proceeds will benefit Summerville D.R.E.A.M. VanDoren the Magician will perform a professional magic show at 5 p.m. in front of the bandstand and a non-motorized parade will begin at 6:30 p.m. Registration for the parade begins at 4 p.m. As tradition calls for, participants bring their own decorated baby carriages, little red wagons, roller blades, bike, trike and/or pets in order to march in the parade led by Mayor Berlin Myers. Prizes will be awarded for Most Patriotic, Most Original and Most Patriotic Pet.

After "Red, White and Blue on the Green," family fun continues as The Town of Summerville and Dorchester County will co-host an amazing fireworks display at the Gahagan Sports Complex. Concessions and music will begin at 7 p.m. and the fireworks show will begin at 9 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend and to bring a beach blanket and lawn chair (coolers or alcoholic beverages will not be permitted).
