Rain-filled days reduced area Fourth of July celebrations to a fizzle over what was an extended four-day weekend for some people.Midway CIC, which postponed its celebration from Thursday to Saturday, was forced to do some rescheduling again.“We’ve never had to deal with anything like this before going all the way back to the 1950s,” said Beckee Bell, one of the organizers. “We’re still kind of holding out hope we might do it another day but I can’t say right now. I’m sure there will be several different suggestions about what we should do.”When the rain came Thursday, Midway decided to keep its entire Fourth of July schedule intact and move it to Saturday.
