The cannon fuse that sets off the fireworks
Dillon Cheeseman of Hamburg Fireworks
The crowd builds
Not just fireworks at the event
Albany Baptist Church provided food for free
The local broadcasters broadcast locally
A tyke learns about sparklers
A sparkler on a string
The fireworks show begins
They came in assorted colors
Seems hot, doesn't it
Blankets in July!
The fireworks were spectacular, as fireworks tend…
Next morning, a footrace preceded by the national…
And they're off!
Some rode the course, powered by mom
All dressed up and no place to go
Before the race starts, bubbles
Emma, 3, is excited about fireworks
Golden shots
Red, white and blue

Grand Picnic, Fairhope, Pa., July 4, 1916
"Picnic. There will be a grand picnic held at Fairhope, July 4, 1916. We have erected a large waxed floor for those who wish to enjoy dancing. There will be refreshments of all kinds served on the grounds. Everybody cordially invited. Kennell & Sturtz, managers."
This comes from a photo of a broadside framed under glass rather than a scan, and the quality of the image suffers a bit. "Sturtz," who was one of the managers of this "grand picnic" held on the Fourth of July one hundred years ago, was probably John W. Sturtz, who was my great-grandfather. I'm not exactly sure what "grounds" in the small town of Fairhope, Somerset County, Pennsylvania, might have been available as a venue for serving refreshments and erecting a "large wax floor" for dancing.
