The Lake Fest committee has announced, with regrets, that unless a substantial amount of rain fally by Saturday, the Culver Lake Fest fireworks may be postponed to a later date due to the drought. The decision is a precautionary one made by the Culver fire chief and department, according to Jean E. Overmyer of the festival committee, who notes that a rain date will be scheduled based on the weather conditions. “It will still be a great Lake Fest!” she adds.

Ok.. so now that we have received over 2 inches of rain, can you please let the show go on??? Yes I mean the fireworks. Surely you can see the error of your ways in cancelling.
I'm sorry but this festival

I'm sorry but this festival is not worth attending without the fireworks. There's very little to do or look at which is a joke. The fireworks are shot from the middle of the lake. How much more water do you need???
Does a drought cause the lake to be flammable?

This decision seems to lack common sense. Those fireworks are a nowhere near anything that could catch fire.
lack of common sense or political motives?

It seems there is more to the decision to cancel the fireworks than a lack of common sense, we ALL know the lake cannot catch fire, and the barges are far from anything that could catch fire. Who on the county council wants the show stopped, and why?
