On Independence Day, we celebrate our nation’s freedom from tyranny and our own freedoms as Americans. Even as our country sometimes feels very divided, we know that America is a beacon of hope around the world because of ideals like the freedoms of speech and religion, freedom of the press, and to assemble freely and to petition the government. The commissioners salute all of the men and women serving around the world to preserve those ideals, and wish everyone a safe and happy Independence Day.

All county offices are closed today in observance of the holiday.
