Blast off to Sandy Beach July 3 for the annual Heber Springs Area Chamber of Commerce Fireworks Extravaganza.
“We invite everyone to the largest fireworks display in the state,” said Melisa Gardner, community relations director for the Heber Springs Area Chamber of Commerce. “You can join us by car, boat, or foot as we celebrate America’s independence on the shores of Sandy Beach. Spend your day enjoying all that Heber Springs has to offer, then beginning at 6 p.m., music, food, and fun abounds at Sandy Beach.”
Gardner said entertainment will be presented by the 2010 Silver Dollar City Youth in Bluegrass winners, The Jed and Harry Clark Band of Searcy. “They will be on stage from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. They are regularly featured at the Ozark Folk Center in Mountain View.
“The Charlie White Band will follow from 7 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. Charlie White is a seasoned Nashville musician who is the former lead guitarist for Highway 101 and Pam Tillis. His crowd-pleasing show features music from a wide range of genres, so there is sure to be something for everyone.”
Miss International 2010, Erin Golden of Heber Springs, will be available for autographs and pictures, according to Gardner.
Once the sun goes down the sky will light up with hundreds of firework shells zipping and zooming to end the day. The show should start around 9:30. “The show will be choreographed to music on KFFB 106.1. It will be a moment you will never forget.”
Parking is $5 per car at Sandy Beach with additional parking at the Heber Springs recreation area.
The day is meant for family fun, and that does not mean the partaking of adult beverages. “Alcohol is not permitted at Sandy Beach,” said David Smith, Heber Springs Police chief. “We will have several officers patrolling the beach and area to ensure alcohol is not present and that everyone is safe.”
Visitors should be cautious of the heat. “Spectators need to remember to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids,” said Donald Shull, owner, NorthStar EMS. “Alcohol does not help in hydration. Try to stay cool in the hot conditions. NorthStar will have an area set up to help cool you down if you get too hot.”
