To the Editor:
We attended the inaugural drone show hoping to have a spectacular showing. The atmosphere was patriotic and we loved the food trucks being there. The live music was very good from the bands that played. There is something to say about the bombs bursting in air that we did not get with the drones. The show was nice, but lackluster in our opinion. I understand that it is more friendly for the environment and better for the animals that are scared of loud noises, but it was not what we were hoping for.
We truly hope that in the future, we can get the fireworks back. It was ok, but we left feeling let down. Please bring our God and Country celebrations back for the 4th. When I first moved here, they had fireworks over at the Silver River State Park. It was awesome, with country music being played on the big stage. Teri Clark was the country star.
