City of Sully 4th of July Celebration

Sully, small in population, offers many activities for the whole family throughout the year!

The 4th of July celebration draws some of the biggest crowds to Sully. The day starts with a 5K fun run/walk and a freewill breakfast. The parade involves the whole community, including floats, school band, and community members showing off their polished tractors, groomed horses, or decorated bikes. Stay the day in Sully and enjoy lunch on the square hosted by the Sully Lions Club and let the kids play in the carnival. The afternoon is filled with water fights and ball games, and the celebration concludes with fireworks.
