Good morning, Springfield.

Mo Hamby (90) celebrated 50 years since becoming a U.S. citizen on July 4 after opening her dance studio in Springfield; born in England, she built her life through dance and embraces her journey from wartime origins to local success.

Springfield held its 35th annual Fourth of July Parade on July 4 at 4:32 p.m. The hour-long event started at Central Street and Drury Lane and ended at historic Washington Park (celebrating America’s 250th birthday) with music and free treats.
