(STILLWATER, Oklahoma / June 7, 2017) – The Chickasaw Boomer Blast Fireworks Show will take place Tuesday, July 4 at Boomer Lake Park in Stillwater. The City of Stillwater announced today that Chickasaw Telecommunications Services will serve as the title contributor of the City’s Independence Day fireworks show.
 
“We are so excited to have the opportunity to contribute to this family event,” Chickasaw Enterprise Sales Representative Kimberly Stemm said. “We stand behind our community and we champion events like this that offer a fun atmosphere for all ages.”
 
Chickasaw will contribute $5,000 to help offset the cost of the fireworks. The event itself is organized and presented by the City of Stillwater and Stillwater City Council.

Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to sit back and enjoy the free show. Parking is free and lots open at 6:30 p.m. Lakeview Road Bridge will be closed to vehicle traffic in order to accommodate pedestrians. The 20-minute show will start around 9:35 p.m.

The City of Stillwater follows a contingency plan in the event of rain, which includes assessing whether the grass parking lots are able to support the anticipated 2,000 vehicles that come to Boomer Blast each year.
