Walhalla readies for July 4 celebrations

If you’ve been to Walhalla this week, you can tell the downtown is starting to transform itself to be the setting of the city’s July 4 celebrations.  Brandon Burton, city administrator, informed the mayor and council that there will be activities for young and old starting on Friday and continuing through Monday, July 4.  Once again,  fireworks will be shot from the grounds of the First Baptist Church on Independence Eve, Sunday night, July 3.  On another side of Main Street, a carnival is beginning to take shape.
