Freedom 250
The 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence will be celebrated on July 4, 2026. This year-long event will reflect on the nation’s history, honor its contributions, and highlight its achievements.
It is an opportunity to celebrate America’s diverse cultures and pay tribute to those who have sacrificed for our freedoms. We are excited to offer officially licensed American 250 field options for your next field to mark this significant occasion.
From The Director
This Fourth of July feels a little different.
As our nation celebrates 250 years of independence, I find myself thinking less about dates and milestones and more about the people who brought us here. For 250 years, Americans have believed in something remarkable—that freedom is worth defending, that tomorrow can be better than today, and that our children deserve every opportunity to pursue their dreams.
The story of America has never been easy. It has been built through sacrifice, courage, and an enduring sense of hope. It is found in the tears of mothers, in families whose lives were forever changed by war and service, and in the countless men and women who put the needs of their country ahead of their own. Freedom has always come at a cost, and every generation has been asked to carry its share of that burden.
When I look at our flag,
I see a symbol that belongs to all of us. It doesn’t ask where we came from, what we believe, or who we voted for. It stands for freedom, opportunity, and the audacity to dream big dreams.
As we gather with family and friends this Independence Day, let’s take a moment to be grateful—for those who came before us, for the freedoms we enjoy today, and for the privilege of calling this country home.
Happy Birthday, America.
