Letter from the Aptos Chamber of Commerce President

Dear Aptos Community,

Happy 4th of July! While we cannot be together for our community parade, we hope you can feel the love and support from the Aptos Chamber of Commerce! Each year, our community gathers to celebrate the 4th of July together at the World’s Shortest Parade and postparade festivities in Aptos Village Park. This year, while we cannot celebrate in person, there are several ways you can celebrate the 4th of July in true Aptos style!

Local businesses are participating in a 4th of July decorating contest to promote community spirit! Check out the Chamber website (http://aptoschamber.com/ independence-week/) July 1-July 4th (at midnight) to vote for your favorite, most spirited business!

Also on the Chamber website (http://aptoschamber.com/ independence-week/), you can pre-order your 4th of July t-shirts! The t-shirts are a sweet way to celebrate the 4th of July and commemorate a year unlike any other.

Finally, please join us in celebrating our community by decorating your homes, businesses, and cars to “celebrate our Independence--Independently!”

We have many challenges ahead, but we are always stronger together. Stay safe and stay positive!

Sincerely, Peggy Pughe, President Aptos Chamber of Commerce Principal, Aptos High School (Go Mariners!!!)

We might be missing the parade this year, but we are together in spirit.
