Perry Park board weighs fireworks vendors and cost as Independence Day planning continues
Summary
Residents asked about next year’s Fourth of July fireworks; the board discussed vendor availability and price estimates for a 30-minute show ranging from $14,500 to $30,000 and agreed to seek proposals.
At the Oct. 10 meeting a resident asked about plans and vendor selection for next year’s Fourth of July fireworks show. Director Christian M. Warren told the board that vendor availability and the cost of licensed crews are primary concerns; the minutes record price estimates for a 30-minute show in the range of $14,500 to $30,000 and note the district’s recent laser show cost about $15,000 and received mixed reviews.
The board said it is collecting proposals from multiple companies and that Perry Park is currently “at the top of the list” with the prior vendor, though availability is not assured. The board also discussed Christmas light storage and asked for a volunteer to help with installation of the community décor.
