DESCRIPTION:I would like to invite the general public to remember what th
 e holiday on July 4 is really all about. It's not about&nbsp\;cookouts\,
  parades\, or fireworks. It's about "life\, liberty\, and the pursuit of
  happiness". That is why we should not "Celebrate the 4th"\; instead\, w
 e should "Celebrate Independence Day" as our Founding Fathers called it.
  &nbsp\;\nThe Founding Fathers of this great country voted for independe
 nce from the British government on July 2\, 1776. The Declaration of Ind
 ependence was a written explanation to their fellow&nbsp\;colonists as t
 o why the Continental Congress had voted this way. This document was for
 merly adopted by Congress on July 4\, 1776\, but it was not&nbsp\;signed
  until August 2.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;\nI would like to invite the public to par
 ticipate in reading the Declaration of Independence at 9 AM on Wednesday
 \, July 4 at the&nbsp\;Dough Boy statue in Tiverton by the&nbsp\;old Sto
 ne Bridge next to Grinnell's Beach.&nbsp\;We all need to remember why we
 &nbsp\;enjoy the freedom&nbsp\;we have in this country\, and why the&nbs
 p\;Congress declared our independence as a separate country from Britain
 . &nbsp\;\nI will have a limited supply of Declarations available to rea
 d from\, but you are welcome to bring your own copy. I hope you will sha
 re your experience at this public reading with others who could not be t
 here - and why it is called Independence Day. Then you can go to your co
 okouts\, parades\, and fireworks knowing why it is such a great American
  holiday.
