Photo Gallery: Fourth of July Party in Ridgewood

Sports, games and patriotic holiday fun in Ridgewood Park to celebrate the 4th, for all those who stuck around in the Village for the holiday.

Ridgewood residents, kids and their friends filled their on Wednesday late morning and early afternoon for a cheerful 4th of July party complete with food, an inflatable moonwalk, patriotic decorations and a host of fun party games.

Competitions were held in bike racing, soccer-ball kicking, egg toss and water-balloon toss. Kids also enjoyed the park’s recently-renovated playgrounds, and everyone was sure to keep hydrated in the stifling 98-degree heat.

As always with fun visual events, Patch stopped by with a camera; check out our photo gallery above!
