Rain Hastens Middle Township’s Fireworks

 

By Al Campbell

COURT HOUSE — The nation’s 232nd birthday is history.
After a day of fun and festivities, like those at the Davies Sports Complex here where Middle Township hosted its annual fireworks and family games, Mother Nature performed a water and lightning show.
A rain did not deter the crowd that gathered to watch the fireworks, slated to go skyward about 9:15. However, at about 8:50 p.m., a gentle rain became more persistent, and the fireworks show began.


After the finale, as crowds headed to their cars, the rain continued to fall, and some extra fireworks were sent up.
This may be remembered as the year Middle Township’s festivities were dampened. On June 16, Middle Township High School graduation ceremonies at Memorial Field were shortened to about 30 minutes by a thunderstorm.
