4Th Of July – SBEA Closed
SBEA will be closed on the 4th of July. The lake will reopen for regular business on July 5. SBEA main plant stores will be closed both July 4 & 5. While the SBEA will not be hosting a July 4th Celebration this year, we want to wish you and your family a Happy 4th of July! We hope you will have a day filled with laughter, love, and fireworks! A day of fun and cheerful celebration with your family and loved ones. The decision to not hold our annual 4th of July Celebration was a very tough choice the Board and Staff had to make. After many long discussions they concluded that so many towns, housing districts etc. organize celebrations that has affected the attendance at our event. Between attendance and cost of the event it was no longer cost effective of the dues our members pay.
