CELEBRATE JULY 4TH AT MONTREAT

Independence Day is a special time at Montreat. Saturday, July 4, Montreat Conference Center will once again host its annual Fourth of July celebration.
A parade beginning at 10:30 AM will launch this year’s theme, “Our Heritage, Past and Future,” and will be headed by Grand Marshals Pat and Bob Tuttle, pictured above.

Come by the Presbyterian Heritage Center on Saturday morning, 9 – 10 am, July 4th, for coffee and tasty treats as the Heritage Center opens its Calvin & Presbyterian exhibit celebrating the 500th anniversary of the birth of Reformation leader John Calvin. The PHC will close for the parade at 10 am and reopen from 1 – 4 pm that afternoon.
