Summer is here and it’s time to bring out the red-white and blue for Independence Day!
Independence Day is a national holiday in the United States, which commemorates the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The event took place in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, where Thomas Jefferson drafted the first copy, later, to be signed by the Continental Congress of the original 13 colonies. In 1781, July 4th was recognized as the first “official” state holiday. Today, it is a popular holiday celebrated nationwide.
