Answer: A. Eastridge, fourth, July

Step-by-step explanation:

Eastridge is the name of a specific place which makes it a proper noun. July is a proper noun as well.

Proper nouns are meant to identify specific things and include names, cities, companies and the like. A proper noun should be capitalized when it appears in a sentence.

Fourth should be capitalized because it refers to a holiday which makes it a specific thing.
