Food and beverages will be available. Free inflatables for the kids!!!

The evening will conclude with fireworks at 9:45 p.m. They will be shot from the recreation field on West Court Street. Due to fallout from fireworks, no one will be allowed in the area around the ball field.

Bring a lawn chair and enjoy an evening of fun with your friends and neighbors! Due to street closure, seating for the fireworks show is available in the street on West Court Street. The hill gives a great view of the fireworks show.
