Letter to the Editor: Thanks and Appreciation from Independence Day Committee

Published 4:00 am Friday, July 9, 2021

Dear Editor,

The Annual Independence Day Fireworks Extravaganza was a huge success. 

The spectacular fireworks show and concert not only dazzled our local residents, but brought hundreds if not thousands of visitors to our historic city. Vicksburg’s favorite band, The Chill, did their usual great job entertaining the crowd.
