Happy Fourth of July from Omaha Media Group to your family and loved ones! At Omaha Media Group, it’s important to us that our staff is able to enjoy the holiday with their families. That is why our office will be closing early on Friday, July 3 at 12:00 p.m.!  

Our management office, development and marketing teams will be on vacation starting at 12:00 p.m. on Friday, July 3 and will be returning on Monday, July 6 to normal business hours. 

All development and marketing tasks that are not assigned prior to Friday, July 3 at 10 a.m. will be scheduled in the order they were received when our teams return to the office on Monday, July 6. 

Should you need support during the holiday weekend and you are a valued member of our support package, do not hesitate to create a ticket by emailing our support desk at the email provided to you in your support package. Our on-call support staff will assist you in the order your support inquiry is received. 

The Fourth of July is about celebrating America, eating hot dogs, boating, camping and enjoying fireworks, but with a global pandemic and COVID-19 continuing to impact Nebraskans, this year’s festivities and celebrations are going to be much different than past Fourth of July events and celebrations. 

This does not mean that the holiday is a bust, but time to adapt and find new plans! Not all families might be able to attend events, even if they are socially distancing from others, which means that the fireworks need to come to you. 

A family can still celebrate with a cookout, hiking and some of the best virtual fireworks that the Internet can offer! Just like planning an event, there should always be a backup plan! Yes, there are still events, stores and other fun happening for families! Here are family friendly events happening in Omaha from Visit Omaha! 

Be safe, wear a mask out and about, stay six feet away from others and enjoy your holiday!
