On a hot summer day, you want to be here! It’s Colfax’ Old-Fashioned Independence Day Celebration, compliments of Colfax Pride, Inc., the local group organized originally to support this great day.
About the fireworks
Pyro Spectaculars, a fifth generation, nationally recognized, family-owned business, will once again be providing Colfax with a fireworks spectacular, the perfect exclamation point to a wonderful day and the natural high point to every Independence Day Celebration.
