One great theme and many imaginative interpretations animated the Invasion event on July 4, 2024, as Cherry Grove and Fire Island Pines joined forces to create their 49th-annual event which is the undisputed crown jewel of Independence Day festivities on Fire Island and arguably within the New York state itself. Nobody does it better than Fire Island!
