As we approach the 4th of July and the beginning of America's 250th anniversary celebration, it's time to restore our sense of national pride. This Friday, Tucson residents are invited to gather at Udall Park for a special event featuring a reading of the Declaration of Independence, followed by a flag wave and barbecue with city council candidates.

As summer heats up in Arizona, parents face the challenge of keeping children engaged without relying too heavily on screens. Holly Swenson, author of "Stop, Drop, Grow and Glow: Forming Deeper and More Joyful Connections with Yourself and Your Children," offers valuable insights on navigating this balancing act.

The 4th of July celebration at Udall Park (7200 East Tanque Verde) will begin at 8:30am with Charles Heller's annual reading of the Declaration of Independence—a tradition now in its 27th year.
