This year’s festivities include something for everyone: live music, the Lions Club Brat Tent, our much-loved parade and fireworks at Barrington High School. We’re also proud to mark a special milestone, the 10th Anniversary of Barrington’s White House. This wonderfully restored 1898 mansion has become the Village’s cultural and community center, a place where our past and future meet. We’re excited to celebrate all it has come to represent in our community.
