Sofia Lauriano wears a patriotic costume to celebrate Fourth of July in Woodlawn Lake Park on Monday.Summer heat and nearly 100-degree temperatures didn’t pause festivities at the city’s H-E-B-sponsored Fourth of July celebration at Woodlawn Lake Park. Groups of friends and families arrived bright and early to set up their designated area with tents, lawn chairs and umbrellas, awaiting the fireworks that will cap off the day’s festivities after dark.
Dannetta Torres was dressed in red, white and blue and had glitter on her arms and legs, showing off her patriotism. Torres, who was with her family, was flipping carne asada on a large, round grill. Her friend, who stood across from the grill, seasoned meat. For Jeremy and Aicha Glenn and their four children, their family’s first Fourth of July celebration in San Antonio meant navigating larger crowds compared to the small town they recently moved from. As they walked the trails along the lake and through scattered tents, they sported matching patriotic outfits. Another military family, they have a long history of service that dates to the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, Jeremy Glenn said.
