• The Apex Fireworks Frenzy went off with a bang (a lot of them, actually), but no fireball. And it seems like most are ok with that. Olde Fashioned Fourth of July celebration was hot but worth it! Did you know this is only the 3rd year Apex has had fireworks!!?? Thanks again, Mayor Gilbert!

• What to do this weekend

• Apex Learning lunches and National Disability Independence Day the town of Apex hosts a learning lunch each month that focuses on a different topic surrounding cultural events alongside an expert.
