It is with great disappointment that Independence Township has made the difficult decision to cancel our Celebration Day & Community Picnic that was tenatively scheduled for Saturday, September 26th.We had hoped to bring our community together for a free, family-friendly day at the park, but unfortunately, we did not receive enough volunteer commitments to make the event possible.We truly appreciate everyone who reached out, shared our posts, offered ideas, or expressed interest in attending. We were excited about the possibility of creating a new community tradition, and we are genuinely disheartened that it won't be able to happen this year.Putting on an event like this takes more than just funding and planning — it takes enough community members willing to give their time to help with setup, activities, food, cleanup, and all the little things that make a day like this possible.❤️ We haven't given up on the idea. We hope that, perhaps next year or during another season, we can revisit Celebration Day with enough volunteers and community involvement to make it a reality.Thank you to everyone who supported the idea and helped us spread the word. We hope to celebrate with you in the future!❤️💙Independence Township

Today Independence Township remembers September 11, 2001, and the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives in the tragic events of that day.We think of those who lost loved ones, the first responders who ran toward danger, and all the people who came together to help their neighbors in a time of unimaginable tragedy.We are grateful for the first responders who bravely serve our communities, and for the strength and kindness shown by ordinary people when it matters most.We will never forget. 🇺🇸
