Red, white and boom! Haverhill will host its annual Fourth of July fireworks celebration on Monday, July 3.
This year’s fireworks will kick off between 9 and 9:15 p.m. from Riverside Park on Lincoln Avenue. The city will also feature live entertainment, vendors and other holiday fun in the area surrounding Trinity Stadium. In the event of rain, the fireworks display will take place on July 5.
Other local fireworks displays include Methuen (Sunday, July 2 at 9:15 p.m., Riverside Park on Riverside Drive; rain date July 7); Andover (Monday, July 3 at dusk, Andover High School); and Atkinson, N.H. (Monday, July 3 at 9:30 p.m., Big Island Pond; rain date July 4).
Money for fireworks and all that comes with it but there isn’t money for the daily operations of the city.
I’d rather have anothe r police officer, school counselor or a street sweeper come down my street than the fireworks.
The priorities of this administration is pathetic.
