We missed out on our fireworks this summer due to the burn ban — but we didn’t forget! We owe our amazing community a show from our Annual Garden Party, and we’re excited to say it’s happening on Halloween night!

Thanks to a great idea from our dear friends Nanette and Roy Conrad , we’ve decided to light up the sky on October 31st at 8:30 PM.

Bundle up, bring your friends and family, and join us for a spectacular fireworks display hosted by the Western Shore and District Fire Department.

Let’s end the season with a bang 💥 and make it a Halloween to remember! 🧡🎆
