The show will be held on Saturday, July 2nd and not Monday, the 4th of JulyThe City’s 4th of July “celebration” follows a dismal month and a half for the City’s Mayor Bruen and former Mayor Peggy “Mealy Mouth” Breeden as well as Councilman Scott Hayman. See Below for the details.
The City Council forgot to recognize Memorial Day and there was a noticeable dearth of flags displayed throughout the town, especially by the business community. Only four businesses on China Lake Blvd displayed the Flag on Memorial Day.
WESTA-LUSK IN THE HEADLINES YET AGAIN: COVID DRAMA
During the June 1st council meeting, the members of the council were knowingly exposed to Covid by Renee Westa-Lusk while presenting a “key to the city” to her. Westa-Lusk felt the need to explain the timeline of her illness via a phone call to the IWVGA PAC meeting held on June 23rd.
She explained to a handful of PAC members that were present that she got sick, felt better, went to the Council to receive the “key”, then got sicker and hasn’t been right since. Since there’s been no news in the papers, we thought everyone should have the opporunity to run around town with their hair on fire demanding a quarantine of the entire City Council who’s members are nowhere to be found.
Why Westa-Lusk waited to phone the GA PAC during the June 23 meeting (where she wasn’t) instead of the City Council meeting (where she was) on June 16 is unknown and council watchers eagerly await an explanation at the next Council meeting to be held on Wednesday July 6th.
Ridgecrest will be closed on the 4th of July

Treat yourself to a getaway on July 4th for the Annual 4th of July celebration in Bishop! It’s only 120 miles north of Ridgecrest and if you leave early, stop at the Alabama Hills Cafe in Lone Pine on your way. The Eastern Sierra Scenic Byway is about as good as it gets and there are many sights to see along the way. Have a happy July 4th!

It’s time to celebrate America’s birthday in the Bishop City Park. Together with many amazing community partners, the Bishop Fire Department is preparing to give Bishop an Independence Day to remember. The entire park will be full of activity throughout the day, and everyone is invited to join the fun! There will be food vendors, craft booths, live music, and more. Bring a picnic blanket, lawn chairs and the whole family for an afternoon celebration. After 9 p.m. tune in to KIBS, 100.7 FM for synchronized music and look to the sky for the fireworks spectacular, which will be launched from the east side of the Bishop City Park. Guests are welcome to spread out throughout the park, in the baseball fields, or watch from home in the downtown area.
