Fireworks Tonight!

Category: Mon Valley Miscellany || By jt3y

It's the last night of the Village ... fireworks start tonight at 9:15, rain or shine.

Entertainment gets underway on the main stage at 3 p.m. with Radost Orchestra of Pittsburgh, followed by the Gypsy Strings, the P.A.S. Slovak Folk Ensemble, the Sacred Heart Junior Tammies, the Lajkoniki Polish Dancers and Slavjane.

In the Jakomas Pavilion, Ray Jay and The Carousels will be playing from 5 to 9 p.m., and dancing is encouraged .... or at least welcome. (Actually, there were some people really moving out there Wednesday night.)

Councilman Paul Shelly writes to note that parking at McKeesport Area High School is free throughout the Village; lots at nearby churches and Penn State Greater-Allegheny-But-Really-in-McKeesport-Campus seem to be running between $1 and $3.

And where do members of Panthera tigris park? Any place they want to.
