June 22, 2017 (Poway) – Experience an old-fashioned Independence Day celebration complete much as people at the end of the 1900s would have done.  The fun includes patriotic entertainment, gun fighting reenactments and rides on a historic railway train—as well as tasty treats, crafts, old-fashioned games and entertainment at Old Poway Park (14134 Midland Road, Poway) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The event is free, though there are small fees to ride the train.

Shuttle Locations Available: Free Shuttles to and from the event will be available from two different locations. Locations include the Poway City Hall Parking Lot, 13325 Civic Center Drive, with the additional location at the Poway Adult School Parking lot located at 13626 Twin Peaks Road. Shuttles will run throughout the event.

At 9 p.m. you can watch a fireworks show at Poway High School; gates open at 6 p.m.  For more information, visit http://poway.org/Calendar.aspx?EID=697&month=7&year=2017&day=4&calType=0
