Some of the hundreds present on the upper hillside brought picnics.

Some ate Costco pies and bought drinks at the nearby stand

Many reminisced by listening to the Reminisants, a 48-year-old oldies band. Many children lined up in front of the band's tent to do the Twist.

The event, held by the Friends of Robbins Farm Park, ended at 7:30 p.m.

The Boston fireworks were held at 10:30 p.m. Sunday, July 4. Scroll down in this listing >>
