The day begins with a
firemen's water fight. Registration is at 8 a.m. and the event
begins at 9 a.m. Several teams from neighboring communities are
expected. Everyone is encouraged to come on out and cheer them on.
Lincoln Baseball
Association will host all-star baseball games beginning at 11 a.m.
The swimming pool
will open for the young people at 1 p.m., with "Splashapalooza"
scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Relay races, inner tube races, diving
for pennies and much more is planned. Admission is only $1, and the
pool will close at 5 p.m.
Games for children
and adults will start at 7 p.m. Children's games will include races,
relays and contests with prizes being awarded. Games for adults will
be hosted on the driving range. Prizes for the putting, "bean the
cart" and other games will be given. To play bean the cart, we place
a bull's-eye on the golf cart and drive it about 100 yards. You have
three balls to try to hit the cart as it drives back and forth on
the driving range.
Concession stands
will be available. There will be music by the Sounds of KC, Kevin
Curry will be the DJ, and of course, it would not be the Fourth of
July without the fireworks, which will begin at dusk.

host a bake sale beginning at 6 p.m. Activities beginning at 6 will
include hobby displays in the Fellowship Hall, games and face
painting for the kids. You are invited to use the Immanuel lawn for
watching the fireworks, and the church offers their restroom and
parking facilities as well.
