Independence Day Parade in Carpentersville salutes the good old red, white and blue
Amadeus Franco's favorite parts of Saturday's Independence Day parade in downtown Carpentersville? Collecting candy from the parade participants throwing pieces into the crowd and getting a chance to see the 'little cars.' Those cars were the miniature '57 Chevys, about an eighth of the size of the actual thing, being driven by the West Suburban Shrine Club as part of village event, which was held for a third year on the Saturday before the Fourth of July holiday. Shriner Seth Markham, behind the wheel of the blue Chevy, said they get a kick out of the audience cheering their appearance. 'It's awesome. It makes it all worth it,' Markham said just before the parade stepped off at Lincoln Avenue and Main Street. 'It makes your day, for sure.' It was the first of two parades the club was going to attend with the cars Saturday. On Thursday, July 4, they'll be participating in four, he said. Their appearance is part of Carpentersville's effort to 'have something for everyone,' said Greta Salamando, the village's business and community engagement coordinator. 'We want to be inclusive and bring some fun, excitement and music (to the event).' They also wanted a hometown feel so many of the marchers represented different aspects of the village, Salamando said. This year, more than 50 units made up the procession, 10 more than last year, she said. In addition to the Shriners' Roaring '57 Chevys, new to the lineup were the Brass Works, a brass band that played Mardi Gras and patriotic music, and a bubble performer from Glenn David Productions, Salamando said. The grand marshal was Specialist 5 Bill McConney, a Carpentersville resident and Vietnam veteran. Plenty of red, white, and blue befitting the holiday could be seen everywhere along the parade route, including the outfit being worn by Rachel Duck, a member of The Bridge Church, which is based in Barrington and wants to build a new church on land purchased in Carpentersville, she said. Church members decorated a truck with animals and florals, emphasizing the idea that we should 'see God in the small things,' Duck said. Fellow member Kelly Yarrington said, 'Our hearts are for the community.' The parade route took participants over the Fox River bridge, where a reviewing stand DJ announced each group, float or decorated vehicle as it passed by en route to Carpenter Park, where the annual Duke's Blues Festival started at noon. The two-day event, held as a fundraiser for nonprofit Taste the Love, featured blues musicians and finger-licking barbeque. Duke's Blues Festival, presented by the nonprofit Taste the Love, coincided with the Independence Day Parade and Dundee Township Park District's annual fireworks display on Saturday night. Terrance 'Duke' Seward, owner of Duke's Blues-N-BBQ and founder of the blues festival, approached the village about sharing the date this year so the two events could be linked. 'This year, we have Duke's Blues Fest so people can go to the parade and stay and hang out at the blues fest and then end their evening with fireworks,' Salamando said. As for Amadeus, the thing he's really looking forward to is that fireworks display. It's the only thing he could talk about for the last week, his mother, Rosa Onofre, said. Her love the holiday, she said, is a little more big picture — it's about 'being an American and the freedom.'

Fourth of July fireworks: Here's how Trump's tariffs can take the spark out of it this year
Fourth of July, referred to as Independence Day in the US, is celebrated by Americans in different ways, with one of the major highlights being the fireworks. This year, people might have to spend extra on them due to the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, NPR reported. U.S. President Donald Trump speaks at the White House after a Supreme Court ruling curbing judges' power in a case tied to birthright citizenship.(REUTERS) Julie Heckman, executive director of the American Pyrotechnics Association, anticipates that people will get a "little less bang" this time. A major reason behind this is that the US is completely dependent on China when it comes to fireworks. These include rockets, fountains, and other items that are used in large numbers by Americans to mark Independence Day. How are Trump's tariffs affecting Fourth of July fireworks? China, a major fireworks supplier across the globe, manufactures 99 per cent of the backyard consumer fireworks as well as 90 per cent of the professional display fireworks for the US market, said Heckman, adding that the country was the "sole source" for fireworks supplies for America. Earlier this year, fireworks were hit by double and triple-digit tariffs by the Trump administration, much like several other things that the country imports from China. During Trump's maiden term, fireworks remained outside the purview of the trade war. The problem is serious this time, forcing some of the fireworks importers to halt deliveries so that they can avoid import taxes on them. Heckman told NPR that there are chances that people might get to witness shortages in product supplies this time. He has even advised customers to be early birds to get the best variety. Few brands, such as the American Fireworks Company, stockpiled fireworks much before the Trump-imposed tariffs came into effect. However, they ended up with a volatile season. John Sorgi, whose great-grandfather started American Fireworks Company, said they have changed product prices four times. Fireworks concern stretches into 2026 Not just 2025, the fireworks industry remains concerned about 2026 as well, when the Fourth of July will be a Saturday, meaning they can expect a jump in sales. The occasion marks the 250th Independence Day of the US. In the US, fireworks from China are being taxed at 30 per cent. This could reach April 2025's level of 145 per cent if no trade agreement is reached. FAQs 1. What actually happened on the 4th of July 1776? On this day, the Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence. 2. What is the Fourth of July supposed to represent? This day marks the declaration of America as an independent state after breaking away from British rule. 3. What is the July 4th celebration for? Independence Day, popularly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the US.

On Friday, operations at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, one of the busiest around the world, were severely disrupted after the region was hit by thunderstorms.

Departures were delayed by 16 to 30 minutes and were increasing by late in the evening, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said. Meanwhile, arrivals were delayed by an average of 1 hour and 15 minutes at one point. All inbound flights to Atlanta remained grounded at their departure airports until at least 12 AM EDT on Saturday, officials said. Due to strong winds, personnel were evacuated from the control tower at the airport, the FAA noted. Statement from authorities A statement from the agency said, "Air traffic controllers have returned to the Atlanta control tower after the FAA evacuated most personnel due to strong winds... A few controllers remained in the facility to handle inbound aircraft." Tim Turner, a spokesperson for the airport, said that only two controllers were present in the tower to maintain communication, while all others were safely evacuated. Later on, the tower resumed operations as normal. Delta Air Lines operates more than 900 flights on a daily basis from Atlanta. It stated that over 90 of them were diverted due to lightning and high winds. FAQs 1. Are Delta Air Lines' operations back to normal on Saturday? The airline has warned that delays and cancellations could continue into Saturday morning amid aircraft repositioning. 2. How many flights were affected due to the storm in Atlanta?
