Citrus County residents will have the opportunity to celebrate Juneteenth with two events on June 19 and 20. The first event, a kids’ pageant, will take place on June 19, and the second, a family fun day, will occur on June 20.
In other local news, State Attorney Andrew Wooten has declined to press charges in a recent case. Details about the case were not provided.
The kids’ pageant is scheduled to start at 3:00 PM on June 19, and the family fun day will begin at 10:00 AM on June 20. Both events aim to bring the community together to celebrate Juneteenth, a holiday that commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States.
Juneteenth celebrations are significant in Citrus County, as they promote unity and recognition of the country’s history. More information about the events can be found on the Citrus County Chronicle’s website or local event calendars.
