‘Fireworks over the Fairground’ to be big county event

NORWICH – This Fourth of July will be the first in Chenango to welcome Millennia Entertainment as a contributor to the “Fireworks over the Fairground.” The group has sponsored several events throughout the area and will be bringing in a nationally-acclaimed country artist, said Managing Partner Terry Potter.

“We felt it would be counter-productive to hold our own event elsewhere in the area and didn’t want to put ourselves in a position to compete ... this way there is much less risk,” said Potter.



The Norwich Fire Department has sponsored the fireworks display at the county fairgrounds for the last seven years. This year a carnival, including games, vendors and possibly even a demolition derby, will be held at the Norwich fairgrounds. “We hope it will resemble something similar to the county’s fair, but not nearly as large,” said Potter. Non-profit organizations will be allowed to set up free of charge at the event.
