Fourth of July festivities in Moraga and Orinda

Looking for something fun to do on the Fourth of July? You won't have to go far, with many wonderful activities offered in Moraga and Orinda to help you celebrate. Start the day off with a full day of parades, pancakes, fun and games, starting with a fun run/walk at 7:30 a.m., a dog parade at 9 a.m., and the ever-popular children's bike parade kicking off at 10:30 a.m. at the Moraga Commons Park. Stick around for lots of fun entertainment, like jumpies and magic shows, as well as food, beer and wine and - of course - the fireworks after listening to the Dave Martin House Party closing celebration. To sign up for the fun run visit moragafunrun.com or buy a rocket in support of this event at moragarec.com.

Looking for more in Lamorinda? Not to worry. The city of Orinda will be rocking on the Fourth as well, starting with the Lamorinda Sunrise Rotary Pancake Breakfast at 7:30 a.m. followed by the flag raising ceremony at 7:55 a.m. at the Library Plaza in front of the Orinda Community Center before the start of the Haley's Color Fun Run for a Reason, which will offer participants a chance to enjoy a 2-mile run/walk or a 5-mile run through scenic parts of Orinda (see story on page B5). The EFO Big Band and EFO Summer Band will entertain participants assembled for the parade, which starts at 10 a.m.

Everyone is invited to meet up afterward at the Community Park for music and activities from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Have a happy and safe Independence Day!
