]]>Two Fourth of July Fireworks Shows Near Algonquin
An Exceptional Day
The breeze cools your skin when you reach inside an ice-cold cooler for a drink. In Michigan, the weather is lovely.
Watermelon drips, hot dogs sizzle, and potato salad is presented in bowls.
The sights, sounds, smells, and feelings arouse all senses. Laughter reverberates throughout the park, reflecting off the lake, and is emitted from the rides, games, and kiosks. Frisbees fly until dusk as baseballs and gloves meet. And just when I thought the day couldn't get much better,
Over the trees, the pitch-black, open sky bursts into brilliant red, blue, yellow, and green sparks.
As the crowd cheers and exclaims, rockets whistle, whiz, and whirl overhead, casting a colorful atmosphere of light. The energy is at an all-time high, and people are staring in amazement.
Enjoy the splendor of this time and this wonderful holiday.

]]>Supporting the local community is important to us here at Algonquin Square Apartments, and we like to feature local events that have an impact on the community and the people involved. With so many fun things happening and events around town, choosing one that supports a cause or helps people is a great way to give back and have fun at the same time.
The local daycare Kiddie Academy is hosting a Field Day event benefiting the organization Family Promise.
Not only is Kiddie Academy a daycare, but they offer educational child care to help kids reach a higher potential and grow into outstanding members of the community. Kids learn and grow in their interactive environments with things such as family-style meals, designated learning times, and curriculum focused on the present moment and growth as time goes on. They learn character development, decision making, outdoor play/fitness, communication skills, and much more.
Family Promise has partnered with them to host this special event on November 6th and have a field day for everyone to come and enjoy the outdoors and participate in games and fun.
Family Promise is a national organization with a local community and city-based focus to fight homelessness and create spaces for adults and children. They fight crisis before it happens, and help people secure housing when it does.
