MUSKEGON -- A "We the People" celebration of the 222nd anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution will be noon to 8 p.m. Thursday.
A group calling itself The Muskegon Patriots is hosting the event in the parking lot in front of the Mart Dock and next to the LST 393 in downtown Muskegon. The event will be inside the LST in case of rain.

Booths representing various organizations will be set up from noon to 6:30 p.m. From 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., speakers will talk about the history of the U.S. Constitution and protection of rights.
The event's theme is to "uphold the Constitution of the United States, celebrate it as a gift from providence, and assert our natural rights as a free people, whereas, no government or group can modify, revoke or alter our rights."
Visitors to the free event are encouraged to bring lawn chairs. Members of the public will be given a turn on the "public soap box" to make their own statements.
