Enjoyed Ronan's 4th of July events

Editor,

As a former long-time resident of Ronan, I am compelled to thank the City of Ronan for the wonderful 4th of July celebration. I moved away from the valley 13 years ago, but come back often. Through the years, my husband and stepdaughter have come to love the area as much as I do.

We have made it a tradition to visit over the 4th of July holiday. This year, we were so impressed with the fireworks display. Thank you to the city, baseball diamond, emergency crews, and anyone else involved in the planning of this event. We will be back in 2006 and can't wait to see the show.
