Marathon’s America-Fest: Celebrating 250 Years of Independence
Saturday, August 1st 6pm – 10pm
Marathon Community Park Amphitheater
Join the Marathon community for a one-of-a-kind patriotic celebration marking the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence which happened on August 2, 1776! Set across the scenic grounds of Marathon Community Park, this family-friendly event blends history, adventure, and classic summer fun.

The festivities kick off at 6:00pm with games and music. Starting promptly at 6:30pm is the interactive treasure hunt, inviting participants of all ages to explore the park in search of hidden clues and historical surprises. Whether you’re solving riddles or racing to the next checkpoint, it’s a lively way to connect with the spirit of independence. After the hunt, settle in at the amphitheater for a special outdoor screening of National Treasure—the perfect cinematic companion to a day of discovery and intrigue.

Throughout the evening, enjoy free hot dogs, chips, and drinks, plus plenty of entertainment for everyone. Kids can bounce and play in the bounce house and game zone, while a live DJ keeps the energy high with music and dancing under the summer sky.

Bring your friends, your family, and your patriotic spirit—this is Marathon’s way of celebrating America’s past while making new memories together.
Notice: One or more City Council member may be in attendance.
