Riverside Park in Independence resembled a scene from The Music Man last night.

Families and children were playing and setting up to watch the fireworks display, and the Mid-Continent Band performed a special 8 p.m. concert that was broadcast live on KGGF. Selections included the Armed Forces Medley in honor of Independence Day. A recording of the broadcast is available here. The fireworks kicked off at 9:30 and were funded by donations sent in through the Ignite Indy Fireworks Fund organized by the Rotary Club.
