The organizers of the annual Arthur fireworks show are putting the finishing touches on this year’s festivities.  This year’s show takes place on Saturday, June 28, and as with past years, it’s expected to attract visitors from all across the country. 

Larry Schlabach is part of the organizing team for the event.  He says part of what makes the show stand out from others are the fireballs shot into the sky, along with how they make that happen. 

Schlabach has in recent years refined the way he and others create and shoot the fireballs.  He says it makes the experience even more entertaining for visitors. 

Even with the uniquenesses of the Arthur fireworks, they still strive to honor veterans every year on the heels of Independence Day. 

Saturday festivities begin in the afternoon at two with the parade.  The action then moves to Jurgen’s Park.  Food, activities, and performances will keep people entertained until the fireworks begin at 8:30.

More information on the Arthur fireworks is available at their Facebook page.
