Fourth of July Founders Day Picnic supports Evergreen Memorial Historical Cemetery in Riverside
"Front Row Fireworks" at Evergreen Memorial Historic Cemetery has long been a beloved annual event in Riverside, but this year, the Founders Day Picnic will replace it as the cemetery's largest fundraising event in Riverside.
On July 4th, the public is invited to the cemetery from 3p-7p to enjoy food, drinks, games, a bounce house, Science Lady, Balloon Twister, face painting, tours, and tributes to first responders like AMR, Riverside firefighters, and Riverside Police Department.
Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for kids 6-12, and active military and kids under 5 are free. Parking is available near Riverside Community Hospital and at Riverside Eye Specialists for $10.
In this interview, Ron Richmond, a volunteer with the Founders Day Picnic, shares a brief history of the cemetery and what to expect from this Fourth of July event.
