Apology for the Town Center Park Laser Show!

CoffeeandWine : Yes a HS venue might be the answer. We were a vendor last night at the Fulshear Freedom Fest held at Jordan HS. Massive crowds and great traffic and crowd control by the Fulshear PD. Fulshear-Katy Area Chamber of Commerce was the sponsor. The fireworks and live music took place in the HS staff parking lot and residents parked in back of school and/or walked from their homes. Traffic on the two 4-lane roads surrounding the HS was at a complete standstill during the finale but cleared out quick. Just an idea to kick around---

rdroark : Our trees present a problem for finding a suitable venue. Katy area has different topography than KW. Then there is the issue of impacting our already overtaxed streets and roadways.

This is exactly what I've been trying to say. Even if Humble HS doesn't work anymore, there's still Atascocita HS, which has a ton of parking lot and the practice football field could be the launch site. We need to move from Town Center.

CaffeineFree : Kingwood already has a firework display. Think outside of Kingwood.

eighteen: I agree, they have had fireworks over at Kings Harbor in the past but not this year . I used to enjoy the fireworks at towncenter but honestly the trees have gotten so tall, I think it would be hard to see, but wide open over the river at the harbor seems like the best option to me, imo, too bad the two can't come together and have a great co-festival event with fireworks

SummerSneeze : Town Center folks could collaborate with the Lake Houston Chamber of Commerce.

Our very first 4th celebration in the US and it was truly an eventful experience thank you to all the organizers for making our American dream a reality. My daughter was dancing with the music and laser show carefree and safe feeling like she finally found her place she belongs.

eighteen : I am not sure if Humble ISD would want to take on that liability. If something went wrong or someone was injured the district could be help responsible.

FLAbaby62 : No. We need to bring back the stadium style firework display. Kingwood Country Club took over whatever Kingwood had going on. It honestly sounds like some kind of undercut move from my observation.

Chrysanthemum : City of Humble had a fireworks show lasting several decades that was spectacular. No one knows what happened to it... could've been funding. I don't recall anyone being injured, and no one else has said anything in regards to that.It was held at Turner Stadium.

eighteen : Yes, Atascocita HS has almost the same layout like Jordan HS. As long as police can keep the traffic moving at least until the end when fireworks actually start, then everyone should have a good experience with great visibility of the show. And it's not far from Kingwood. I drive by there every week going to Town Center.

LisaAnnSmith : I was so pleased to see so many families with 3 generations present, parents, kids and grandkids. Thats what we want the Park to be - a place for families to relax and enjoy themselves.
