The Yankee Trace Community Association is excited to celebrate with a special community event honoring America's 250th Birthday.

Kick off the day with a community parade. Decorate your bikes, scooters, strollers, or golf carts and join in the fun. We'll also have pool activities, classic cookout food, additional activities throughout the day, and a special closing ceremony.

If you are a veteran or know veterans who live in Yankee Trace, please email their names to fsheehanhoa@gmail.com so we can recognize them.

We are collecting about 200 one-gallon milk jugs to create luminaries at the community's entrances. Please save your empty jugs and drop them off with Fran Sheehan at 1186 Club View Drive.
