Guava St.

If you are in Recreation Plantation or Oakleaf Village Apartments there should be some prime viewing areas as well.)
Between 5 and 9 p.m., participants can enjoy a multitude of food trucks, bounce houses, and live music with Voodoo Vibe at the Guava Street Athletic Complex, culminating with a colorful and captivating fireworks display that is sure to delight attendees of all ages.
Fireworks Start at Approx 9:15pm
