Independence Day is Harvard’s hometown celebration and longest-running tradition. It is run entirely by volunteers. These folks work tirelessly to assure that the celebration continues to be a destination for friends and families. Started in 1906, the event has evolved with the decades, but what has remained the same is the spirit of Harvard and our celebration of family, community, and country.
