Item VI H
MEMORANDUM
•
TO: City Manager, Commissioners, and Staff
FROM: Mayor Vandergrift
DATE: April 16, 1993
RE: Fireworks Celebration
This is a request for the city to sponsor or cosponsor a
fireworks show in commemoration of the birth of our Nation.
Since July 4th falls on a Sunday this year, I propose that we
hold the fireworks display on Saturday, July 3rd, at 9:00 P.M.
Permission has been sought and tentatively given to fire the
show from the point behind the Lettings Recording Studio.
With the proper control of the audience, the state laws
concerning distance should be acceptable. I have asked the Fire
Chief to confirm this,
This proposal is based on the assumption that monies can be
raised from the private sector to help support this effort in the
event that the city does not have the money or motivation to do
so.
The quote of$5000 from Garden State Fireworks of New Jersey
owned by the World Champion Santore Bros., represents a 20
.to 30 minute show that will satisfy the most discerning fireworks
watcher. I have set off fireworks professionally in the past and
I am willing to do so again if this is a way to reduce the cost of
the package,
A display and celebration such as that described above can be
a great boon to attitude and city pride of the citizens of Ocoee.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Dear Henry,
On behalf of the Cape Coral 4th of July committee T would like
to thank you for the best firework show Cape Coral has ever
seen. We have received nothing but great praise from the
community on this years show. After seeing this years display
it is easy to see why Garden State is a World Champion.
I would also like to compliment your crew for there efforts and
professionalism. They were a pleasure to work with through out
the day. I was very impressed with thier concern for safety.
I think the decision was made before the grand Finale that if
the Red White and Boom celebration continues annualy that the
only firework compnay for our show is GARDEN STATE.

A GARDEN STATE finale begins with an arrangement of colors, special effects,
and gradually introduced noise, leading without pause into the principal feature of
our finales, a Santore Brothers trademarka furious and continuous pounding
barrage of Titanium reports, Over this exuberant display of bright flashing noise
and titanium sparks, an arrangement of fancy color shells is layered creating a
wall of fire, colorand noise leaving the audience breathless with a spectacular
ending.
