As the sun sets on July 4th, 2024, the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC) invites neighbors, home buyers, sellers, and local business owners to come together for a celebration like no other. Nestled at the ALA Football Field, located at 4827 N Country Club Dr, Scottsdale, AZ, the SRPMIC 4th of July Celebration promises an evening brimming with excitement, community spirit, and patriotic flair. From 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm, attendees will have the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in a blend of traditional and contemporary holiday festivities, making for an unforgettable Independence Day.

The event kicks off the moment the clock strikes 6:30 pm, offering a warm welcome with complimentary hot dog or hamburger meals to the first arrivals, ensuring nobody celebrates on an empty stomach. For those with a hunger for more, a variety of food trucks including Ice Surrender, Frybread Riot, and Tacos Huachi will be on site, each serving up their signature dishes that promise to tantalize your taste buds. Not just a feast for the stomach but for the senses, the event boasts an eclectic mix of entertainment ranging from the lively tunes of Waila Style 87 & DJ Jermatik to the refreshing free slices of watermelon, perfect for the summer heat.

Beyond the savory delights and melodious beats, the celebration is packed with activities that cater to all ages. From contests that test your skills and carnival games that challenge your aim, to an inflatable obstacle course for the daring and a dunk tank for those looking to make a splash, there’s no shortage of fun. Families can also delight in the crafty touch of a face painter, bringing smiles and vibrant colors to the faces of many. As dusk turns to night, the sky will light up with a dazzling fireworks show, symbolizing the unity and strength of the community. It stands as a heartfelt thank you to the Rousseau Farming Company and Casino Arizona, whose generous donations have made this spectacular day possible.
