Holiday celebrations held throughout Waupaca County

COVID-19 kept communities across the United States from celebrating the Fourth of July last year.
That’s not the case in 2021, especially throughout Waupaca County.
Several communities – including Waupaca, Clintonville, Weyauwega, Iola, New London and Manawa – observed the holiday with fireworks, parades and other events.
Meanwhile, the Mid-Western Rodeo returned to Manawa for the first time since 2019.
