New 4th of July Fireworks Vendor
The Jaycees have announced that they will be using a new vendor for the Annual 4th of July Fireworks display at Zearing Park. The show will be conducted by Extreme Pyrotechnics, a company that “maintains one of the largest varieties of product effects in the display industry.” Their attention to detail and emphasis on safety have made them a leader in the industry. With impressive ground displays and synchronized effects, this year’s show promises to be one of the leading shows in the area. This annual show is not possible without generous donations from the community. Thank you to all area businesses and organizations that help the Jaycees make the display possible. Fundraising for this community event starts in March. If you would like to donate towards the cost of the show, contact the Jaycees through our website.
