EDGEWATER – The city, along with the Edgewater Fire Rescue Association and the Edgewater Professional Firefighters, have teamed up to create a fun-filled Fourth of July celebration on Monday for the community and visitors.
The day will begin with a 5K walk/run, co- sponsored by the Southeast Volusia YMCA, along S. Riverside Drive. There are still some spots left for the run – call 409-9622 to sign up. The entry fee is $20 prior to Sunday and $25 on the day of the event.
There will be music provided by Mister D.J., food and various vendors at Menard- May Park and George R. Kennedy Park beginning at 5 p.m.. Be sure to bring your appetite – there will be everything from barbeque to hotdogs to all kinds of sweet treats.
The day will culminate at dusk with a spectacular fireworks show over the Indian River by Zambelli Fireworks that is guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser.
City officials said that no door to door solicitation for the fireworks has or will occur. If someone knocks on your door asking for a donation, contact the police department’s non-emergency number 386-424- 2000.
