July 4, 2026 marks our nation's Semiquincentennial anniversary. To celebrate, we invited Team Des Plaines – community members from throughout our great city - to read a section of the Declaration of Independence. We are proud of our Team, proud of our Country, and proud of our wonderful Des Plaines Community. Happy 4th of July! WATCH IT HERE
