With Carson City preparing for July 4th fireworks Friday, which will be launched from Eagle Valley Golf Course, Nevada Rural Counties RSVP is looking for volunteers for the cleanup afterward on Saturday morning in the area of Centennial Park, a major fireworks viewing site.
Nevada Rural Counties RSVP will be at Centennial Park fields Saturday beginning at 7:30 a.m. to help guide individuals, families or groups who wish to volunteer. Volunteers should bring gloves and wear comfortable shoes.
Carson City celebrates July 4th with fireworks show
The fireworks show is happening Friday with the display scheduled to begin at 9:30 p.m., weather permitting. The show will last approximately 20 minutes and include a barge of fireworks for the grand finale.
This marks the second year the fireworks will be launched from Eagle Valley Golf Course. The change in location became necessary due to the expansive fallout zone required for safety and the development of housing near previous launch sites, including Carson High School and the Cross Creek, Mills Meadows and Capital Crossing areas.
After exploring several options, RSVP received an approved permit from the City for Eagle Valley Golf Course, ensuring a safe and scenic show for the community.
Free parking is available at Centennial Park (upper and lower lots), and many areas along Arrowhead Drive provide excellent views of the fireworks.
If you plan to enjoy the fireworks from Centennial Park, RSVP kindly asks that you please take your trash with you in order to help to minimize cleanup effort. Your support in keeping the park clean is greatly appreciated.
