5-Alarm Grand Opening
« on: April 06, 2015, 06:04:56 PM »
FYI: Saturday is the grand opening for Fireman's Landing.  Festivities will start around 8:40am at the Gazebo with a performance by California High School's Pinto Pride Band followed by presentations by the Herschend brothers and other guest speakers.  Next a parade to Fireman's Landing will occur featuring a bag pipe band in the lead followed by numerous firefighters, golf carts with dignitaries and the California's band.  At the new area there will be two more short speeches from the 2nd story balcony of Fire Station No. 3, ribbon cutting and another performance by California's band.

All of the area's major media outlets will be in attendance. If you want to witness the ceremonies you should plan to arrive early.

How'd you rank such an esteemed performance?

I'm glad to see they have incorporated an accessible balcony for presentations, and they seem to be open to having performances in the area.  This is what's missing in GE.
