Apache Junction Hometown 4th of July Celebration - 2011

Apache Junction is southeast of Phoenix. Most of Apache Junction is actually in Pinal County, not Maricopa County like most of the other cities and towns of Greater Phoenix. Apache Junction's 4th of July event incorporates an entire day of family activities, fun, music and fireworks.
