Petition gets paraded in Havre de Grace

Residents of the Aberdeen area who oppose plans to annex about 1,000 acres of land into the city spent a portion of their Independence Day holiday exercising the rights granted to them more than 200 years ago by our nation?s Founding Fathers ? to petition grievances with the government.

In the case of Fourth of July festivities Sunday in Havre de Grace, many affected by Aberdeen?s annexation plans were taking this right literally.
