Celebrating in Tamarac

It was 90 degrees in the 6 pm sun, but we found good shade in between some food trucks, as we got ready to enjoy the 4th July celebrations at the Sports Complex in Tamarac.

Since Tamarac is the nifty city, Sonja and Camille came up from boring Miramar to groove with us😁.

 And they had a great time.

And guess who was working non-stop on the holiday? Yup our venerable, ever-present Community Center manager Michelle Sendik 😊.

Those who weren't able to walk too easily from the shuttle bus stop to the field, had her ride service waiting to help out! (Our shuttles were brand new dreamliner buses to boot too!).😊

I also saw the other Michelle, the energetic Mayor Michelle J. Gomez, appropriately decked out in stars and stripes, actively engaging with constituents and visitors as usual.

 The music was fantastic. 

That band, 'The Jam Band,' really knows him to put on a great show. And it's lead singer, a young lady, was versatile and unstoppable.

 Her repertoire was drawn from popular songs from every genre of music and she delivered with amazing pitch, intensity and energy.

 Unbelievably, they kept us rocking  for an hour and a half hour,  before taking a short break and resumed for another hour, up to when the fireworks begun! 

An absolutely amazing and flawless performance.

Where we sought sanctuary from the sun was far from the band stand, but excellent for the fireworks which were a fitting finale to what was another entertaining event, put on by my favorite city.

There was lots for the kids, young and young at heart to do too.

Our 91 year old friend Phyllis doesn't stay long at these events, but she never misses any❤️.

Good music, lots of good food choices from the trucks, first class entertainment, camaraderie and lots of fun all the way.

Another enjoyable celebration at 'the 'city of our dreams.'
