Fourth of July celebration

Great Meadow will host a powerful new 4th of July celebration this year with a special theme based on celebration of the Bicentennial of the American Bill of Rights.

After high praise for its spectacular fireworks display here last year, the 200-year-old French pyrotechnics designer Ruggieri has again been selected to stage the fireworks, including a special surprise re-creation from Operation Desert Storm.

A number of special events are planned, including national champion stunt pilot Earl Andrews, who will perform over Great Meadow in his 400-mph Pitt Special.

A jousting tournament, jugglers and strolling minstrels will entertain arrivals, together with relay and sack races for small children. Food services will be available. Gates open at 5 p.m. and fireworks will begin at dark.

Advance tickets will go on sale at area outlets in June. Watch the Fauquier Times-Democrat, sponsor of the event, for location of ticket outlets. Great Meadow is located between The Plains and Warrenton near 1-66, a short drive from Rappahannock County;
