fireworks at Hammock Bay today?

[By the Bay]

Has anyone heard about fireworks tonight - July 5th - up at Hammock Bay? I heard something about this but don't know where or what time. I think it is connected to the grand opening of the new Freeport City park in Hammock Bay.

There was an ad in the Walton Sun last week announcing the fireworks and Grand Opening of the Park, but I think it was yesterday, July 4th. chrisv was going, so maybe he'll chime in.

I had to go back and find the ad I read in the Walton Sun from last week. There is a big article about the Park Grand Opening being held today, July 5, from noon to 8:30pm. Then in the Good Life section, Hammock Bay announces their "4th of July Parade" at 10am, but it is under the header for Saturday, JULY 5. Now if that isn't just confusing as hell... why wouldn't they have the July 4th parade on July 4th? Pardon my English, but that is just stupid. Independence Day was July 4, not July 5. Straighten up over there, Hammock Bay.

It's a Jay Odom project. The guy honestly means well, but there's always somethin off-kilter about all his projects.

Just watched Hammock Bay's fireworks from our front porch. They were spectacular, even this far away (15? 20? miles) and lasted a good 20 minutes. I hate to say this, but I'm pretty sure they skunked both Seaside and Sandestin. (Not like it's a competition or anything...)

From our vantage point, looked like some of God's fireworks (cloud-to-ground lightning) might have been pretty close to there too.
