There will be no personal fireworks allowed due to extreme conditions. Obviously if the weather is bad, especially if it is windy, we will cancel ours as well  .We have taken a lot of precautionary measures to make sure our display is safe including assistance from Nogal & White Oaks fire departments who will be bringing extra fire trucks and men.

Please forward any questions to me as I should know up to the minute what is happening with our display.

Happy Holidays!!
