Simple answer...MONEY!!! Funding was short. Step up and cover the thousands they needed....

A festival with a crowned queen (teen) who also represents a business is a good $ raiser too. They get to coordinate raffles, take donations, hold their own fundraisers, donated prize bingos, etc to all go into community activities. It ends up being companies competing against each other to see who can raise the most $ for bragging rights. Bad years it's around $200k, good years $400K.

What a disaster.......  Kingwood folks spend thousands upon thousands upon thousands of dollars in the TC area and we hear... Owed man owed....its a free show etc...privilege....Its just fireworks
kingwooddiscgolf: Other than being a patron of some of the businesses where I spend money in exchange for goods and/or services not a penny of mine has gone to Town Center.  Just how does Kingwood invest in its development and maintenance?  I want to pledge.

4th of JULY DO OVER.....Official Statement - 4th of July FireworksFor more than 45 years, The Clubs of Kingwood has been a part of the foundation of the Kingwood community. We take great pride in being a part of this community, including the many Kingwood events, festivals and, especially, the neighborhood Fourth of July celebrations. For more than 10 years, Kingwood Country Club has served as the host site of the fireworks display.This year’s decision by Town Center Park, The Clubs of Kingwood and the Pyrotech engineer to move the community fireworks display to a higher elevation was not intended to limit visibility to those in the community. It was, in fact, moved with the understanding the new location would provide a better view for surrounding areas. We regret this did not happen and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience to your holiday plans. As a gesture of our commitment to the Kingwood community, we, along with Town Center Park, will provide a Labor Day weekend fireworks show. More information will be communicated – including the best viewing locations – as the details are finalized.We also will be opening the Club Water Park to the community on July 21 from 12 to 8 p.m. Please stop by and enjoy our two pools, diving area, Big Kahuna water slide, lazy river and more. Please RSVP ahead of time by clicking here http://events.clubcorp.com/KingwoodCommunityand completing a short form so that you and your family are added to our guest list. We look forward to seeing you! 4951

Is this true and real? If so that is very over the top and generous and I owe them an apology.
I do understand that we are owed nothing by anyone. It was just a pisser to haul my family there and get nothing after the wait.

Relevant news so that we can light a fuse on this wonderful string...
 
Per KCC:
 
"With the storm approaching, this has impacted our Labor Day Weekend plans here at Kingwood. The impact of Hurricane Harvey is and will be significant in many ways – forcing many of our members and neighbors to leave town, exhausts all of our resources to focus on preparation and recovery, not to mention the potential damage and flooding we will experience for days to come after the storm has passed. As a result, we have halted our preparation for the upcoming Labor Day fireworks show, and will need to postpone indefinitely.

The Club takes great pride in being a strong community partner for Kingwood and its residents, and we regret any impact this may cause. On a more positive note, it was our sincerest pleasure to welcome over 1,000 friends in our community to experience the Water Park this summer." 4951
