Fourth of July auto races to headline Sioux City celebration
The Fifth annual American Lesson celebration on July 4 in Sioux City will feature more than a dozen top race drivers in six events at Interstate Fair Grounds. The program includes flag raising, a concert by the Monahan Post Band, drum corps drills, and a special daylight fireworks display.
