independence day

There are a lot of America-loving people in Iowa.

There will be three big fireworks displays in Cedar Rapids over the holiday weekend. Two of the three will be shot off over the Cedar River.

Since we became a nation in 1776, there's only been SEVEN full moons on our country's birthday.

A new gym in Cedar Rapids is open exclusively for veterans.

We may not be able to set off fireworks here in Iowa, but there are still a number of things to be cautious of when it comes to the holiday.

There is actually a lot that you may not know about Independence Day.

If you thought you would get a head start by leaving for the holiday weekend today, you're not the only one!
