Hello everyone,

We had so much fun at our Fireworks Rally! Here are some pictures.

Bev Schweiss, our ace sales person, was selling buttons for $5.00 each as a motorcyclist is passing by. They are a way for you to show your patriotic spirit and help pay for the fireworks. The Old Dam Band played and the public was invited to come party.

Lisa Garrett, Dennis Slow and Carol Slow are sporting our 2011 Fireworks t-shirt. They are $15 each. This gains you entry into the grassy area west of the Old Lock and Dam building. Spread out a blanket or bring your lawn chair.

This area is closest to the Lions Club hot dogs, hamburgers and the Kiwanis ice cream. You will be near the Old Dam Band and close to the raising of the flag and the singing of the National Anthem. You will be up close to the action!

Fireworks Rally 2011

Even if you are not interested in sitting by the Old Lock and Dam Park, you can see that the navy blue t-shirt is quite the fashion statement. It is also a nice way for an individual to help pay for the fireworks.
