America's 250th Anniversary Celebration
Summary
Burlingame is figuring out how to celebrate the nation's semiquincentennial in 2026 without overstretching staff. Ideas on the table include a history mural, 250 new trees, a community recipe book, essay contests, and July 4 events — mostly branding existing events rather than launching big new ones.
