There will be fireworks Saturday to close out the Steamboat Festival in Waterford. Fireworks are very viewable from the Waterford quay, the river, and Peebles Island State Park.
Fireworks + steamboat whistles = awesome

Chezjake, you took the words right out of my mouth!
Don't forget all the Steamboats, vendors, music, food, and boat rides available all day long. It's the total package kind of day!
