General speaking, the Amish don’t participate in political or national type events. But that being said, I know many Amish families who go to watch the big parade and fireworks display in Mount Eaton and Millersburg, Ohio on 4th of July. They enjoy cotton candy and soft drinks and the ambiance of a warm summer day. It all depends on their Order and the conservativeness of their particular district. I’ve learned to research the customs and habits of the exact community I’m writing about.

I’ll looking forward to your Maine story, having a heard a little about your research earlier this year. I’m curious, what do you know about the Amish and Fourth of July celebrations. I’ve read that many sects do enjoy the parades and fireworks. What have you learned?
