Beginning next year, the Trust is planning an all new “Indepen­ dence Day at Fort Vancouver” event which will feature more his­ torical connections and m ore family-friendly activities. A fire­ works show from the grounds of the Reserve will be a part o f the new event. Although the firew orks show and all-day 4th o f July celebra­ tion is cancelled this year, Fort Vancouver, the V isitor Center and the Fort V ancouver Book­ store will be open on July 4 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Visitors are en ­ couraged to tour the fort and to bring a picnic lunch.
