Our little town of Mt. Shasta comes alive every year for the 4th of July. The town celebrates with three days of live entertainment and street fairs in the small downtown area. Thousands of folks come for the annual Fun Run/Walk on July 4th. The runners head out for a 5 mile run through the backroads around town, while the walkers chat, snack and watch performances for the “parade in reverse.” Families attend year after year, taking part in the walk or the run, watching the small town parade and enjoying the barbecue at the golf course where we all gather to watch the fireworks shot off over Lake Siskiyou. It’s a great small town event – definitely worth visiting.
