We have received many questions regarding possible weather impacts to our fireworks display on July 4th. Currently, we are planning our show as scheduled and will monitor the weather closely. Depending on the weather, City Officials will meet and make their determination to continue with or postpone the show on July 4th by 6:00pm. Please follow our social media pages, mobile app, or website for updates regarding the timing of the shoot and for details if we do indeed need to postpone it. Our scheduled rain date will be July 5th if needed.
