FIREWORKS AT JOE'S POND
Saturday, July 1, 2006
(Rain Date: Sunday, July 2, 2006)

Right now it looks as if the weather is going to cooperate and give us a clear evening on Saturday. The fireworks will be set off from the same location as the last two years - at the north end of the pond, behind the big island. Please remember, if you're going to watch from your boat, DO NOT venture past the island. Any point beyond the big island is too dangerous because of falling debris. Remember also to be properly lighted. Whether your boat is motorized or paddle-powered, you should have proper life preservers and running lights or a flashlight or some other light that you can show so other boats will not run into you.

Please also remember that if you have guests, have them park so they do not block the road. If there should be an emergency, it is important that emergency vehicles can navigate along the narrow roads around the pond. If you are planning to observe the fireworks from one of the hills surrounding the pond, please leave enough room for vehicles to pass.

Each year many people work hard to raise enough money to make the fireworks possible. Please enjoy the evening safely. Drive carefully, whether on land or "sea".
