JULY 4TH WEEKEND INFORMATION





July 2nd Fireworks - Change of Venue:



The Town of Seabrook sponsored fireworks exhibition scheduled for Saturday night, July 2nd is being moved from North Beach to behind the Island House at the Club. High tide at the time of the fireworks would allow the shooting of fireworks on the beach but wouldn't accommodate the traditional crowd that attends this event. We will picnic on the practice golf range (the Club will offer a cash bar) and the fireworks will go off from the 9th Fairway. The fireworks company, fire marshals, insurance, and all other relevant organizations involved have been consulted and feel that this is safe and can handle the large crowd. Everyone is invited.



The Town would like to thank the Club for their outstanding cooperation as it allows the Town to continue a wonderful tradition.



Bill Holtz, Mayor
