About Us
The Ridgewood Fourth of July Celebration began in 1910 when the local papers, the civic section of the Woman’s Club and the Ridgewood Fire Department joined forces to create a “safe and sane ” holiday with an emphasis on Patriotism! The day began with a parade. Pictures of early parades show bands, antique cars, horse drawn floats and many fire trucks. The day concluded with fireworks and a dance in Van Neste Park. This tradition has continued in every year except 1955 when disappointing financial support by residents made the celebration fiscally impossible. The celebration resumed in 1956.
