Thanks to the Lincoln Park District,
children and adults had two opportunities to celebrate the Fourth of
July in Lincoln. On Thursday evening the part district hosted its
family fun outing at the district facility on Primm Road, starting
with an evening of fun, food, and live music that culminated into a
spectacular fireworks show at dark.
The evening began at 6 p.m. with food trucks, ballon artists, bouncy
houses, a big bubble foam party and live music for everyone.
The events hosted were all quite popular with balloons, foam, bounce
houses and the food trucks.
As the evening progressed the crowds grew and by dark the putting
green area of the park district was dozens deep in people lined up
to watch the show.
Those who came to see something great, surely were not disappointed.
This year the fireworks began strong with many occasions when there
were multiple explosions blooming brightly colored starbursts of
various shapes into the sky above the green space.
Time seemed to fly as the fireworks filled the air, and soon it was
time for the grand finale, and it was indeed grand. With almost two
minutes of continual color bursts, the crowd was very well pleased
with the show and wasted no time cheering and shouting when the
event was over.
In spite of the heat of the day, the temperature Thursday evening
was pleasant, and everyone appeared to be relaxed and enjoying the
night.
