By Jeff Petersen Go! Magazine
The rockets'red glare and bombs bursting in air will draw thousands to Community Stadium the night of July 4 to celebrate American independence. Gates open at 6 p.mu and the music starts at 7 p.m. Providing music this year is country, rock'n' roll and blues band Mark Stratton and Lost Creek Road. Firefighters will be on hand with games for the kids and rides on a 1948 Mack fire truck. Food and beverages will be available kom Aramark, as well as cotton candy and other treats. Mayor Daniel Pokorney's daughter, Diedra, will sing the"National Anthem" at 10 p.m. "As soon as she hits the last note, we want stufFgoing up in the sky," said La Grande Fire Chief Bruce Weimer, a member of the Union County Fireworks Action Committee. He is now in his 17th year helping put on the show. Western Display Fireworks of Canby is putting on the show. "Our show is all hand set with fuses on long poles,"Weimer said. "It's not computer-driven and synchronized to music like some of the really big shows." Still, it promises to be explosive. "The satisfaction is listening to the crowd as the fireworks go ofF and hearing the oohs and ahs," Weimer said.

The fire chief said people should not bring personal fireworks or dogs to the stadium. "It's justtoo crowded forpersonal fireworks to be safe," he said. As for dogs,it'sagainstEastern Oregon University policy for them to roam the grounds, and the noise of fireworks hurts dogs. People should keep their dogs indoors and safe during fireworks night.
