Anytime school is out, it is crowded. I would say that 4th of July is lighter, but not much. The fireworks for the 4th of July are supposed to be amazing. I believe there was a write up on it recently on Allears.net. Christmas time is great, but I would go before rather than after. There is so much going on that can get you into the Christmas spirit. Usually once Christmas has arrived, I am done with it. I was there in Jan 2005 and they were still playing Christmas music and some decorations were still up. It was time for it all to be over.
