Fireworks Cancelled – Until Further Notice
by Jenny Chissus
Alvin just called to confirm that the fireworks celebration is cancelled for this evening, and until further notice. The weather is so poor, and unfortunately it doesn’t look like it is getting any better anytime soon. They have the fuses dried out, and is hopeful they will be fine, but another wet night would do them in for good!
Please help us pass the word on to folks that the fireworks show isn’t going to happen tonight – and check back here as we will let you know when it will be rescheduled, on a drier and calmer evening!

Due to Weather – Fireworks Show Rescheduled to January 1 at 8pm
by Jenny Chissus
Tonight, New Years Eve fireworks show started with hope in spite of the pounding rain and constant winds. Unfortunately, after only a few fireworks went off, it became quickly apparent that the pyrotechnicians were having trouble with the weather and getting the fireworks to take flight. After about 10 minutes, the team decided to call it quits.
I spoke with Alvin Swick, who wanted to let everyone know that he has all the fireworks at home and they are working on drying them out. It appears that the actual fireworks are all OK, but the fuses are too wet to maintain a light. Alvin is hopeful to have them all dry enough to set off by tomorrow.
Weather permitting, We will have our NEW YEAR’s DAY
Fireworks display tomorrow night!
January 1, 2013 at 8:00pm at the airport.
I will post any further updates as I receive them – hopefully, the weather will cooperate and we will all celebrate together tomorrow night!
