THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS! We hope that everyone enjoyed the extra special show this past Saturday. Without donations this show wouldn’t have been possible. We are so lucky to have a wonderful fireworks company locally to supply the fireworks and put on an excellent show.

Thank you!

YES! THE FIREWORKS ARE STILL ON FOR TONIGHT AS OF THIS POSTING AT 5:23PM!
‼️If this changes we will update this post‼️

🇺🇸We’re going to do our best to put on a great show for the 250th Anniversary as long as the weather cooperates🇺🇸

🅿️Parking will be available at Frazier park ON THE GRAVEL ONLY- please just use common sense -it’s VERY WET- the city doesn’t want ruts in the grass, and you don’t want to get stuck, because that’s embarrassing. 🤦‍♂️

You can still sit in the grass around Bruin field.
🔥PLEASE DO NOT USE TOPPER FIELD THIS IS FOR MPFD and FIREWORKS PERSONNEL ONLY! 🔥

💰We will be around collecting donations so bring some cash! If you’d rather send a donation please contact us here.💰

ENJOY THE SHOW!

Reminder Fireworks tonight at Frazier park!!The shooting location this year will be in the southwest corner due to the size of the show and the safety setback distance required. The old high school field is in the set back zone so that will be off limits to sit on but everywhere else including Bruin field will be open for seating just stay off the dirt infield as it a little wet. The high school parking lot is also a good location for watching if the park would become full. See everyone tonight, and as always enjoy the show!

It’s going to be a beautiful day today, please dont ruin it by burning your trash or brush today with high winds and low humidity.
JUST SAY NO!

If you must burn please call Logan dispatch at 217-732-4159 to report it. Create fire breaks, have water on hand and a leaf blower to blow embers back into the black. Burn into the wind but preferably wait until it’s not blowing 25mph.
Just a thought, DON’T BURN ANYTHING!

Rule of thumb- don’t burn if the wind is blowing faster than you can run, and be honest when was the last time you actually ran anywhere ?😂
DON’T DO IT!

Stay with the fire until it’s completed. If the fire starts to get out of control, call 911 immediately instead and we will be there as fast as we can to help.
Or better yet DON’T BURN ANYTHING!

There is no burn ban in effect, we know it’s tempting but
PLEASE JUST DON’T!

If you cant help yourself- please be smart, call it in beforehand, stay with the fire, have water, a phone and a leaf blower handy.
Hear me out- DON’T BURN YOUR BRUSH OR TRASH WHEN THE WIND IS BLOWING!

Stay Safe.
