Dear Editor:
Every year, a few dedicated folks take time away from their families and holiday activities to help in the hard work of setting up, shooting, and taking down the annual Patrick County Fourth of July Fireworks Display at DeHart Park in Stuart. The County’s Tourism Advisory Council’s generosity enabled us to shoot what we promised would be the largest, longest and loudest fireworks display our County has ever seen. I hope that you think we delivered.
Those persons who made it happen in Patrick County Emergency Manager, Steve Allen; Ronald Terry, Michael Harrell of Meadows of Dan Volunteer Fire Department; D.J. Lawson of Ararat Volunteer Fire Department; Joey Erichetti and Chris Hooker of Patrick Springs Volunteer Fire Department; Jerry Woods of JEB Stuart Volunteer Rescue Squad; Buddy Dollarhite, Terri Mills, Alex Pegram, Clint Weidhaas, Jonathan Wilson, Austin Bryant, Blair Clark, Brad Lawless, Terry Tilley, and Erica Cipko of Stuart Fire Department; and Randy West, Greg Meade, and Karen Corbett. Their safety-conscious hard work is much appreciated.
Chris Corbett
