Are any of these places near the UC Davis MIND Institute? I don’t know the area. I will be visiting on the 4th. Thanks.
Gena Riede said at June 29th, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Yes, the one in Davis will be closest. Hope you enjoy it and have fun!

Are there no fireworks this year in Old Sac??
Gena Riede said at June 30th, 2009 at 1:41 pm
No, Old Sac hasn’t had July 4th Fireworks for about 5 years. Many people think it’s Old Sac but it’s fireworks from the River Cat’s Game that they see.

The River Cats will be playing at home on July 3rd and will have fireworks at the end of the game.

The mind institute is actually in Sacramento at the med center campus so cal expo might be better for the visitor
Gena Riede said at July 2nd, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Terri, you are absolutely right. Thank you for the correction.
Gena Riede said at July 2nd, 2009 at 3:32 pm

Great info. Anyone thinking the “smaller” events are lame think again. We went to the Carmichael (La Sierra) display last year and it was awesome. Have fun. By the way, I am a Brit!!!
Gena Riede said at July 2nd, 2009 at 5:47 pm
Rob, thanks for the heads-up. This should help anyone that’s on the fence about where to go. Appreciate your comment.

Any fireworks around West Sacramento this year on the 4th. Thanks!!!
Gena Riede said at July 4th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
James, fireworks of ANY kind are illegal in West Sac. even the safe sane kind. The only place I know of in West Sacramento was Raley Field after the game, yesterday. Sorry. You’ll need to drive over the Tower Bridge to Sacramento for fireworks. Happy 4th!
