The city of El Cenizo is gearing up for one hot Independence Day.
At the city's "Fourth of July Family Festival" you can find live music, a rib cook-off contest, and even a hot dog eating competition...
And what would the Fourth of July be without a good ol' fashion watermelon-eating contest for the kids.
It’s all happening Saturday from three o'clock in the afternoon until eleven o'clock at night at the El Cenizo Municipal Park.
Kids get in free and it's two bucks for the adults.
