No matter what your favorite part of an Independence Day celebration, Burney Basin Days and Burney Reunites had something to fulfill your dreams during the 5-day extravaganza that concluded Sunday in Burney.
The town was overflowing with visitors – some returning to their Roots, while others just in the area to enjoy the fun – and all the activities had near record crowds.
The dances on both Friday and Saturday night were packed. The parade offered more floats and entries than usual, with a huge throng cheering the entries down Main Street. Music was abundant in the parade with the two dances featuring three bands, and Music in the Park on two days. It was a musical weekend all around.
From the VFW Barbeque to the Lions Club Chuckwagon breakfasts. From the Bed Races to the softball tournament. From the Fireworks to kids games galore. From the sold-out Craft Fair to the Ducky Derby. It was a weekend of reliving the memories of the past while creating new lifetime memories for young and old alike.
The Burney Reunites Welcome Center and Intermountain Artists Show drew more than 1,000 visitors, and it was something worth viewing.
