FIREWORKS KICK-OFF SUMMER SEASON FOR NEW HOPE & LAMBERTVILLE

Friday, May 28 At 9:30 PM Over The Delaware River

New Hope, PA (May 24, 2010) – The Greater New Hope and Lambertville Chambers of Commerce test run of the fireworks last Friday night was a huge success! This Friday, May 28 marks the premiere of the 15-week Friday Night Fireworks promotion. Our Chambers will illuminate the sky over the Delaware River for a ten-minute show via a barge constructed by Niece Lumber. Retail businesses on both sides of the river will remain open until 10:00 pm. Visit www.NewHopeLambertvilleFireworks.com for more information on viewing spots, public parking, bathrooms and weather updates.

The Chambers of Commerce want to remind visitors that both towns have ample public parking lots includingthe New Hope-Solebury High School, Union Square and The Lambertville Station. Wealso ask that visitors be respectful of residential and business property as there are plenty of open viewing locations to view the show. Thus far, local sponsorship has been strong but the Chambers are still in need of financial donations. If you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution, please send a check to: New Hope/Lambertville Fireworks, P.O. Box 633, New Hope, PA 18938. In return, the Chambers will recognize support by inviting those donating more than $1500 to the exclusive VIP viewing location at the Bridge Street Park in New Hope, PA.
