LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Surviving the Fourth!

Another scorcher in store for the Fourth?

Probably so. Southport, Oak Island and the surrounding communities embrace this ever-growing event that promises plenty of visitors to our lovely cities, mad traffic and huge retail lines. The locals grin and bare it because they know it supports the local businesses and brings in revenue to the city.

There is never a dull moment with all the activities lined up - free, kid friendly and

convenient. I’ve never lived in an area that can organize so many activities back to back in such a small vicinity. A HUGE shout out to the organizers, the volunteers, the extra police on hand and the cities for handling all the extra bodies and cars in town.

We all hope that this year goes off without a hitch and a HUGE bang around 9pm, that lights up the skies for all to enjoy.

This Festival Guide is your KEY to all the special events - pages 4 - 17.

Every year, 35 to 40 children across the country die from heat exposure in vehicles.

Sadly, these deaths can be prevented. The temperature inside a vehicle can rise to almost 200 degrees in just 10 minutes. In fact, it gets so hot that s’mores can be cooked in the backseat. A child’s body heats up 3 to 5 times faster than adults. Even a few minutes of heat exposure can be dangerous for a child. July is historically the deadliest month for child fatalities in hot cars. NEVER leave a child unattended in a car, for any length of time or at any time of the year.

For the safety and comfort of our visitors and pets, leave your pets at home. The N.C. 4th of July Festival Pet Policy discourages pets on the Festival grounds, excluding service dogs and law enforcement dogs.

Most importantly, the heat is a real concern for the health of pets.

Pavement, metal and tarcoated asphalt get extremely hot and can burn their feet. Make prior arrangements to ensure proper care is given to your pets while attending the Festival. Do not leave pets unattended in parked cars, regardless as to whether a window may be left open.

9:00 p.m. Waterfront Sponsored by: American Marine Construction The Band will return to the stage immediately after the fireworks for an encore performance. www.SouthportMag.com / JULY#1 2017 / Southport Magazine 9

Location: Middleton Park Extension, 46th Street SE, Oak Island The N.C. 4th of July Festival Beach Day is a full day of activities on Oak Island designed for the whole family. If sand sculpture building, volleyball, skate board, bocce ball contests sound like fun then you will really enjoy Beach Day. But the fun doesn’t stop with the contests, there is also evening entertainment and shag contest.

Held annually on July 1st, the celebration combines the merger of the Towns of Yaupon Beach & Long Beach into the Town of Oak Island with the celebration of our Independence Day festivities. Beach Day activities are organized and sponsored by the Oak Island Parks & Recreation Department.

The Shag Contest is organized by the Society of Brunswick Shaggers. What is shag dancing? The “Carolina Shag” originated along the area between Myrtle Beach, SC and Wilmington, NC in the 1940s and is still popular today. A couple’s dance, the Carolina Shag, a descendant of the Carolina Jitterbug, is performed while enjoying bech music. Registration for the Shag Contest is from 6:00p.m.-6:45p.m. at Middleton Park Extension Soccer Field.

Children’s Entertainment

Date: Sunday, July 2nd Time: 12:00p.m. - 2:00p.m.

Location: Keziah Park, Corner of West Moore & Lord Streets The N.C. 4th of July Festival has something for every age. Not to be confused with the Southport Parks & Recreation Department’s Children’s Games on July 3rd, Children’s Entertainment is located in Keziah Park, a very shaded park one block from the Waterfront on West Moore Street (next to the Margaret & James Harper, Jr, Public Library).

Children’s Entertainment will give younger children a creative and fun outlet through FREE face painting, craft projects, coloring, beading, and more. The Children’s Entertainment is organized by the Southport Rotary Club.

Firefighter’s Competition Date: Saturday, July 1st Time: 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

Location: Southport Fire Department’s Downtown Satellite Station 115 E. Nash Street Since 1984, The City of Southport Fire Department has invited area fire departments to Southport to compete in the N.C. 4th of July Festival Fire Fighter Freedom Competition.

What looks like fun games to the spectators is really an event to test the teamwork of a department, as it pays homage to training and fire fighting methods of our past. Take for example the bucket brigade.

It was the method of extinguishing fires until the invention of the hand pumped fire engine. There is a tremendous amount of teamwork and physical endurance that is needed to complete this duty. Teamwork and endurance is the key to an effective Fire Department.

The competitive events included Ladder Climb, Tanker Tug, Command Post, Bucket Brigade, and Barrel Push There are plenty of Fire engines, ladder trucks and equipment on display and the firefighters are happy to answer any questions.

Entertainment

Date: July 2 - 4 Location: Waterfront Stage The festival is steep in traditions and ceremonies but the 4th of July is also a celebration. The party is rocking at the Waterfront Stage with a variety of music and entertainment. The stage is located, beside Waterfront Park at the end of South Howe Street but the entertainment is only half the attraction with a backdrop of the Intracoastal Waterway and Cape Fear River, you just never know what will float by as you enjoy the sounds from the stage.

There is plenty of room at Waterfront Park to spread out a blanket or take advantage of the street closing and setup a chair on the pavement, just make sure to save room in front of the stage for the dance “floor”.

All that dancing and foot tapping you will surely whip up an appetite. Food vendors are located adjacent to the stage serving everything from blooming onions to funnel cakes and everything in between.

Food Concessions

Date: July 2nd - 4th Time: 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. July 2nd Franklin Square Park 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. July 3rd & 4th Franklin Square Park 11:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m. July 2nd - Waterfront Park Area 11:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m. July 3rd - Waterfront Park Area 10:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m. July 4th -Waterfront Park Area

Locations: Franklin Square Park - on the Nash Street Side of the Park Waterfront Park Area - Beginning at 104 South Howe Street A variety of food and drink are available during the festival to fill you up as you partake in the numerous festival events. Your sense of smell will perk up when you near the concession areas. You will be tempted by the aroma of hot dogs, Greek gyros, Italian sausage, shrimp baskets, bar-b-que, blooming onions, and fries to funnel cakes, kettle corn, ice cream, cotton candy, and shaved ice.

There are two areas where the N.C. 4th of July Festival food concessions are located. The largest is that near the Waterfront Stage on South Howe Street. There is also a nice selection of food vendors mixed in with the Arts and Crafts in Franklin Square Park. These vendors are only open during the hours of the Arts & Craft Show and are mostly located on the Nash Street side of Franklin Square Park.

If you looking for a way to beat the heat for an hour? We suggest one of the many area restaurants.

4th OF JULY FESTIVAL EVENTS

Arts & Crafts Date: July 2nd - 4th Time: Sunday: 12:00p.m. - 6:00p.m.

Monday & Tuesday: 10:00 a.m.

- 6:00 p.m.

Location: Franklin Square Park, East West & Howe Streets Sponsored by: Bryton’s Home Improvement Make sure to visit their mobile showroom near the Food Court on the E. Nash Street side of Franklin Square Park.

The N.C. 4th of July Festival Arts and Crafts show began humbly as a street fair in an area beside what was then Leggett’s (now Ocean Outfitters) on East Moore Street. After growing and a couple of location changes, the Arts and Crafts found its home in Franklin Square Park. Franklin Square Park, located beside the Southport Baptist Church and at the corner of N. Howe and E. West Streets.

Franklin Square Park was called The Grove in the original Town of Smithville layout in 1792 (Southport was originally called Smithville). Visitors to the over 120 Arts & Crafts booths during the festival can appreciate the beautiful live oak trees that offer shade from the summer sun. Not only are there many fine hand-made items by artists and crafters, we also have unique specialty items located in the many independently owned businesses throughout the City.

Children’s Games Date: July 3rd Time: 8:00 a.m. Registration. Games Begin at 9:00 a.m.

Location: Ages 5 & Under, Ft. Johnston Garrison Lawn, 203 E. Bay Street Ages 6-11, Waterfront Park, 101 E. Bay Street The N.C. 4th of July Festival is sometimes compared to a Norman Rockwell picture type event. Events like the Children’s Games with old time games like sack races or watermelon rolling that never go out of style could be the reason.

The City of Southport’s Parks & Recreation Department does a fantastic job getting children active and providing a fun event for children. Make sure not to miss this event, it is guaranteed to make you smile.

Free tee shirts while supplies last.

USCIS Naturalization Ceremony Date: July 3rd Time: 4:00 p.m.

Location: Fort Johnston Southport Museum & Visitor Center Lawn, 223 E. Bay Street

The Brunswick Big Band plays patriotic music beginning at 3:00p.m., as the candidates for citizenship, their families and the general public awaits the beginning of the ceremony. The ceremony has music, a keynote speaker and canon firings.

“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the armed forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God”

After what may be a decade for some, the candidates take The Oath of Citizenship administered by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security in an emotional ceremony. The Festival celebrates and welcomes these new citizens.

On July 3, 1996, the tradition of holding a Naturalization Ceremony during the N.C. 4th of July Festival began and continues today. The Ceremony is held during the festival on Fort Johnston Southport Museum & Visitor Center Lawn, overlooking the beautiful Southport Waterfront.

The Brunswick County Board of Elections will be in the Southport Community Building from 4:45pm-5:30pm to register anyone including the new citizens to Vote.

The ceremony is a partnership between the N.C. 4th of July Festival and US Department of Homeland Security’s United States Citizenship and Immigration Services. The after the ceremony reception for the new citizens and their families is organized by The Daughters of the American Revolution Brunswick Town Chapter who serve wonderful refreshments and homemade goodies. This event is Sponsored by Novant Health.

We honor and celebrate the contributions of those that have served our Nation through a Veteran’s Recognition Ceremony. The Ceremony will include displays, entertainment, food and a keynote speaker. Each year the Festival Committee will choose a specific military branch, conflict or war to highlight, but make no mistake, all Veteran’s and Active Military are welcome and honored.

Held at the Southport Community Building annually during the festival, this event gives Veterans a chance to visit, laugh, and remember with other Veterans. We invite anyone who is a Veteran or Active Military, relative of a Veteran or Active Military or those individuals who just want to show their appreciation to attend. Sponsored

Travels Moore to Howe Street.

Turns right onto Howe Street.

Follows Howe Street North to Fodale Avenue.

Turns right onto Fodale Avenue and ends just past Ocean Trail Heathcare & Rehabilitation Center Sponsored by Dosher Memorial Hospital ,First National Bank & WECT Who doesn’t love a parade?

The current N.C. 4th of July Festival Parade began in 1964 but has roots dating back to 1700’s, when the ladies of Smithville (now the City of Southport) dressed in white and marched through the town in observance of Independence Day. Today’s parade is much longer and has a bigger variety, with over 120 units filling the streets as children’s eyes widen in delight when patriotic units pass by. An extra special treat is that the newly crowned Miss North Carolina makes one of her first appearances in the festival parade.

The parade is sponsored by Dosher Memorial Hospital, & WECT TV6. Parade route begins at the corner of E. Moore Street and Atlantic Avenue, traveling E. Moore to N. Howe Street and following N. Howe to Fodale Avenue. The festival parade steps off at 11am on July 4th (unless July 4th is a Sunday and then it moves to Monday).

For those who want to watch the parade from the comfort of their air-conditioned home, consider watching the parade on WECT TV6. The parade will be televised on the day of the parade at 8pm on WECT TV6.

Festival Fireworks

Date: July 4th Time: 9:00 p.m.

Location: Southport Waterfront Sponsored by: American Marine Construction In 1792, men of the Town of Smithville (Southport’s founding name) commemorated our nation’s independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain with a toast, as ships anchored in her harbor fired their cannons in celebration. Today crowds of people line the Waterfront in Southport and many “ships” anchor in the harbor to watch a brilliant fireworks display, launched from a barge in the Intracoastal Waterway.

Plenty of oh’s and uh’s are packed into the 20 minute fireworks show which is the finale for the festival.

Stay after the fireworks and listen to the band on the Waterfront Stage from 9:30 p.m. -10:00 p.m.

An alternate fireworks viewing location is near the Oak Island Lighthouse on Caswell Beach Drive, Caswell Beach.
