Fireworks will be allowed this year, both professional and private fireworks. Over the last few years the changing laws and restrictions have created some confusion about what is allowed this year.
After the smoke cleared at the City Council Special Emergency Meeting, the resolution passed to ban all firework activities. The main reason stated was the concern over the public threat of a fire emergency. The Deer Park Gazette takes a more in-depth look at why the decision was made and the thoughts of those involved.
Not wanting to spark a fire during the Independence Day celebrations, Mayor Tim Verzal has canceled the Deer Park fireworks show scheduled at the Deer Park Sports Complex.
The Mayor called for an emergency meeting to discuss banning both the purchase and discharge of fireworks and to ratify his decision to cancel the fireworks show.
Every odd numbered year, the Deer Park Kiwanis Club sponsors the visit of the Culpepper and Merriweather Circus. This is a great, old fashioned evening of family friendly fun.
