July 15 Edition
July literally started with a bang. This year’s 4th of July fireworks were enjoyed by record crowds who gathered along the riverfront beginning first thing in the morning on Wednesday.
By 2 p.m. Law enforcement were putting out the word that all parking “in town” had been filled.
Visitors were encouraged to park in the School’s parking lot and by evening to park in the shopping centers’ parking lots.
Mother Nature was kind this year, providing a slight breeze and holding back the rain this year.
