Parking

The Marina Parking Lot and Lake Street Parking Lot will be closed from 8:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. for Volunteer Parking 

The Marina Parking Lot will open after 1:30 p.m. In the evening, once the Marina Parking Lot is full there will be no entrance into the park. After the fireworks show drivers will wait until the pedestrians are cleared from the park and traffic can move safely from the lot. 

Please remember, fireworks are illegal within the city limits. Personal “Safe and Sane” fireworks are banned (and it goes without saying that the “good stuff” is also verboten).

Please have a safe and happy Fourth of July!
