Alternate locations to watch the fireworks
Does anyone know a few different places you can see the fireworks away from the crowds? We have a couple people/kids with special needs in our group who loves the fireworks but can't handle the crowds. We used to have a friend who lived on far east end of Penn ave, so that worked great, but the last few years since they moved have been rough.
One year, we ended up having to leave before they even started; another year we almost missed them again, but on our way to drop off half of our group, noticed the display was partly visible from the old Kmart parking lot on the south side. That was a cool realization but as we could really only see the top 1/3 of the display and, well... it's an old parking lot, I'm hoping to try a different spot this year. 😅😆
Has anyone had luck viewing from one of the lakeside parks? Maybe the overlook a few blocks north of Vollrath, or somewhere between Kings park and Shooters? 🤷♀️
