A More Perfect Union…
Happy 4th of July!
If you’re in the Coachella Valley this Independence Day, there are plenty of ways to celebrate America, desert-style. Here they are…
Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center 4th of July Celebration: Join the Marines and their families on Victory Field for an incredible Fourth of July celebration with food, music, children’s activities, and dynamite fireworks on the grounds of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in Twentynine Palms. It’s one of the only times of the year that the base is open to the public.
How to get there: The Combat Center is about 50 miles NE of Palm Springs. Take CA-62 N out of the Coachella Valley. Follow it to Twentynine Palms. You will see Adobe Road. Turn left (North) on Adobe Road. The base entrance is a couple of miles up on Adobe. You will see the guard shack.
4th of July Celebration with the Palm Springs Power: Take yourself out to the ball game. Take yourself out to the fireworks. Come cheer as the Palm Springs Power takes on the California Mariners. The evening ends with a spectacular fireworks display.
