The City of Carpinteria proclaims today, June 19, Juneteenth Freedom Day, an important holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. This solemn day serves as a powerful reminder of the long struggle for African American freedom and equality, and its recognition underscores our community’s commitment to understanding and honoring this pivotal moment in American history.
In observance of Juneteenth, City Hall, the Community Pool, the Carpinteria Community Library and the AgeWell program will be closed on Thursday, June 19. Lifeguards will be on duty at City Beach and the Junior Lifeguard program will continue as normal.
