In 2020, BCDR hosted the first annual Juneteenth Rally in the history of Burlington — and now, we’re bringing it back again on Saturday, June 19 at Echo Lake Park in Burlington. Stay tuned for updates on what’s planned, but be sure to mark your calendar for this fun and educational community event.What Is Juneteenth?
Juneteenth is an African American holiday that represents the day slaves in Texas were informed about their freedom, although they had been freed for approximately two years.
