Americafest at RiverTime RV: A Celebration of America’s 247th Birthday

The Americafest celebration in Van Buren was a resounding success, marking America’s 247th birthday with a weekend filled with entertainment and fun. Despite a brief interruption from severe weather, the event delighted attendees with its lineup of talented performers and a spectacular fireworks display.

Despite a severe thunderstorm on Saturday evening, the night kicked off with an energetic performance by Sutherland & Smith, setting the stage for the eagerly awaited headline act, Rick McEwen. Rick put on an impressive show, leaving the audience awestruck at his talents (and his likeness in form and music to Kenny Rogers). The night was filled with music and excitement, creating a memorable experience for all.

A Weekend of Entertainment

The postponement of the fireworks to Sunday only extended the fun. Folks turned out again and enjoyed the opportunity to celebrate America’s birthday a little longer. Sunday evening saw Sutherland & Smith and Friends take the stage once again, and as darkness fell, Freedom Patch Fireworks illuminated the sky, providing a dazzling display that symbolized the patriotic theme of the weekend’s celebrations. The fireworks served as a fitting tribute to America’s heritage and brought the event to a grand finale.
