Alyssa is working hard on her opening speech for the 4th of July on the Square celebration, but Jake isn't convinced that America's 250th is that big of a deal. It looks like it's time for Alyssa to bust out her notecards and show Jake just how cool the fight for independence really was! Join Alyssa and Jake as they experience colonial Philadelphia and meet the man who printed the first copies of the Declaration of Independence - John Dunlap!
