Elkhart County Fireworks

Monday, June 30th, 2008

 Within the past year, Elkhart County has updated its firework law, however, that will not hinder your fun on the 4th of July at all.  This is one of the only days that fireworks are allowed. While there are still state laws you must follow about the types of fireworks you can use, you can feel free to blast away in Elkhart County from June 29-July 9. Just remember to please use extreme caution. Spending the night in the hospital is not fun no matter what day of the year it is.

July 4 – Upper St. Joseph River Flotilla. Theme for decorating boats is anything relating to Elkhart city history. Boats form at Six Span Bridge at 12:30pm., head down to the Johnson Street dam at 1pm and then return to Martin’s Landing for presentation of awards. Best viewing from Martin’s Landing. Bleachers available. Live coverage including music and interviews on 88.5 FM from 1 to 4pm.
