Debra you have found a post for 2010. You are correct though Hudson Mills has their fireworks on Sunday. I have written and posted area 2011 dates and times on my own blog annarbormom.com.

Thanks Meg, I was focusing on the Ann Arbor area only for fireworks, but there are some great resources out there! And Eddie, the parade was a great addition to this post - Makes me consider adding another story focusing on Independance Day parades in the area.
