Chairs will only be permitted on paved surfaces.
 
Parking is limited at the high school and visitors are reminded to not park in nearby shopping center parking lots, which are reserved for store customers. Illegally parked vehicles may be towed.  Drivers near the high school are reminded to watch for a large number of pedestrians crossing Route 7, especially after the fireworks.

In the event of rain, the event will be held on Thursday, July 5 at the same time and location. Spectator seating on the rain date will be available at the high school, but not the Graduate Center parking lot.
