In many ways,
the 4th of July is like one big party for the City of Fall River. It's a
time when everyone comes together for a single event. Not only is it the
celebration of the founding of our country, it is also a time to
celebrate family, friends and the community in which we live. Thought
delayed for two nights due to rain, the 2006 turned out to be very
special as it was the first time the city has gathered in Heritage Park,
north of the Braga Bridge rather than at the foot of Kennedy Park. This
new location took advantage of the city's new boardwalk upon which
hundreds of spectators gathered to witness the display which was timed
to a musical accompaniment. The applause of the crowd indicated their
enjoyment of this once-a-year event. |
