City council to discuss bringing back July 4 fireworks event
Community members have expressed desire to reinstitute the popular celebration
– At its upcoming meeting on April 5, the Paso Robles City Council will discuss the reinstatement of the July 4 fireworks celebration previously held at Barney Schwartz Park, among other items.
During the decade it was staged, the July 4 fireworks event at Barney Schwartz was popular among both locals and visitors. The lack of community celebratory events over the past two pandemic years makes the interest in again gathering in a festive way even more appealing, according to a staff report. Community members have expressed the desire to reinstitute the celebration to put a cap on the past two years and give all involved and attending a chance to celebrate the positive.
