Fireworks Display a Fabulous Success!

June 26, 2011

Questionable weather played a hand in a slow start to the fun and food at Kingston’s Waterfront but ultimately over 5,000 folks were in attendance to enjoy the local food, entertainment, and amazing fireworks display. A good time was had by all.

Thanks to Rondout Savings Bank for their support in offsetting the cost of Police security and traffic control. As well, our appreciation to Mainetti, Mainetti and O’Connor, without whose financial support there would not be any fireworks. The pyrotechnics were top quality and provided a wonderful evening of early 4th of July Celebration.
