The 4th of July is more than a just day in Platte Center, the village celebrates all week.
“Our 4th is not just a day it’s actually multiple days and depends on what day the 4th falls on. We try to get as much squeezed into the week as possible. Our 4th always gets kicked off with mud volleyball and the fun run,” Brooke Schmidt, village clerk said.
Mud Volleyball is one of Platte Center’s staple events. Justin and Kelly Arndt took it over in 2017, and it was going on for 5-10 years before that.
