City Center at Oyster Point appears to be a public park. Is that correct?

It appears to be an activity of the city Parks & Recs depertment.

And it's spelled with two "l"s, ot one.:p

State preemption should be your friend. Quite frankly, with the size crowd they are expecting I doubt anybody will be looking at your hip.

Enjoy the show.

stay safe.

No, wasn't directed at you.

When I first saw the thread, the title was "Holydazzle"-- one "l" in holy.

So, when I opened the thread and saw hollydazzle I realized it was about something Chistmas-y or something. I posted that the only thing I could think of prior to opening the thread was an evangelical laser-light show.

Later, I noticed the thread title spelling was changed. Which helps readers of the thread listings. But, it left my post hanging.

So, I deleted the post.

I see the buzzards will be out.

Daily Press: Police will have a helpful eye in the sky near City Center for Friday's Hollydazzle festivities. Anyone looking up in the area will be able to see a 15-foot-wide helium balloon about 400 feet high. They may not be able to see that it carries a camera capable of recording with a 360-degree view for a three-mile radius.

Your tax dollars at work!

Hey Peter you'll like this, it's called skynet as in the Terminator movies. And no I'm not kidding . Read about it in the paper today.
I just told my 9-yr-old son about the system, and that it is called "SkyNet."

He said, "SkyNet?!? That's not good! Are they trying to destroy the whole world?!?"

I was home last night, but certainly heard the HollyDazzle fireworks!

I hate buzzards. That is what my Stoegger is for.

The first thing that crossed my mind when I saw that:lol:
