Default Any fireworks shows this July 4?

We usually watch the fireworks at the Salem Fair from our shop, but this year there aren't going to be any due to the construction going on across the street from the Civic Center. And, since there isn't a Victory Stadium any more, I assume they aren't doing it there. Anyone know somewhere that there will be any fireworks?

Nice. Why don't I stab myself in the eye with a soldering iron while I'm at it?

I haven't put much thought into it but I sure hope they do the Victory Stadium show elsewhere, at least. It would be pretty dope if they had a way to do it from the star and you could watch from almost anywhere in the valley

As an alternative you can watch wet paint dry... the same excitement... less noise... more relaxing.

Well, I personally don't get all excited about fireworks. But I have an 8 year old and a 4 year old who love them, hence my original question...
