Another Great Fireworks Display!

“This was one of the most enjoyable fireworks displays we’ve ever had,” said Port O’Connor Chamber Vice President, Bill Tigrett. “ With thousands of folks gathering at our beach, there were no incidences requiring the services of law enforcement, Fire Department or EMS. Everyone seemed to be having a great time.”

“This great event could not be held without the dedication of people who give up their family time on this holiday weekend to make this a day for all to enjoy,” Bill said. “Special thanks go to Chamber members Donnie and Sheryl Haynes and Richard of Alpha Lee Fireworks and his helpers for the set up and execution of the fantastic fireworks display. Thanks also to Ann Brownlee and special thanks to Commissioners’ Court, especially Kenny Finster and his crew. Making things more comfortable for the crowd was the donation of “port-o-potties” by Bo Egbert of Waste Management and making the beach look, by the next day, like no one had ever been there was the work of Cleon Kempfer and his clean-up crew. And we really want to recognize LaJune Pitonyak for her tireless efforts and attention to detail in the 4th of July effort, and in all her devotion to our community.”

The Port O’Connor Chamber of Commerce appreciates every donation made to the annual fireworks display. Enough funds have not been collected to pay for this event, so any amount you could donate would be greatly appreciated. Make checks payable to “Port O’Connor Chamber of Commerce – Fireworks” and mail to: P.O. Box 701, Port O’Connor, TX 77982.

Following are the names of those who made this event possible.

If you have given and your name is not on the list, please contact the Chamber and it will be added. Thanks to all who support the annual fireworks display!
