Juneteenth

• Juneteenth, a blend of the words "June" and "nineteenth," celebrates the end of enslavement in America. Also known as America's second Independence Day, Emancipation Day, Juneteenth Independence Day, and Black Independence Day, Juneteenth honors enslaved people, African American heritage, and the many contributions that Black people have made to the United States.
• We will celebrate Juneteenth this year on Saturday, June 17th at the Lodge Pavilion.
