Fireworks
A message from the Greater Shaver Lake Visitors Bureau President.
The Greater Shaver Lake Visitors Bureau, along with Southern California Edison, and the County of Fresno are still proud to present the 20th annual Fireworks celebration on Saturday July 3rd at dark. With the ignition of the Blue Fire the question has been raised if this show is still happening and should it. As residents of the Greater Shaver Lake area, trust us, we asked ourselves the same question.
Thanks to the tireless and tremendous effort by firefighters and first responders, the Blue Fire is under control and at this time poses no threat to our event or our homes. Our show is put on by licensed professionals over Shaver Lake in a safe and secure manner. All permits and permissions have been granted by the county of Fresno. Thanks to SCE’s excellent forest management practices, the threat of fire directly adjacent to the fireworks ceremony is very, very slim. As always, unprofessional and locally purchased fireworks are not allowed in the mountain areas, which pose the biggest fire threat. We understand the concern of our locals, residents, and visitors; we are with you. We will remain diligently observant of high winds and lighting storms. You can look back on the lack of problems over the last 20 years of doing this show for assurance. This year’s celebration marks a significant point in our history. Not only is this a celebration of America, it is also a celebration of the resiliency of our mountains, residents, businesses, and visitors alike. We have battled through the COVID 19 pandemic, as well as the destructive nature of the Creek Fire and still we stand, proud and tall to welcome any and all who wish to join us in this celebration. Be safe, be smart, be kind to each other, clean up after yourself, and enjoy our celebration of America, and life.
Sincerely,
Kyle Lee
Board President • Greater Shaver Lake Visitors Bureau
Co-chair • Rebuild our Sierra
