CONWAY — Perfect summer weather brought the crowds to the Mount Washington Valley for the busy three-day Independence Day Weekend, with parades and fireworks displays in local towns.
“We had a fabulous fireworks display that lasted about a half-hour Saturday evening, with no problems or complications whatsoever,” said Jackson Police Chief Chris Perley Monday. “They were supposed to start at 9, but they let it get darker so they didn’t start till about 9:15.”
