We're not going to pretend this isn't disappointing.⁠ ⁠ Bordentown Township is postponing tomorrow’s fireworks. This wasn't an easy call to make, but the heat forecast is dangerous, and that's not something we're willing to gamble with, not with your families, our volunteers, and our first responders out there for hours.⁠ ⁠ So we're moving the celebration instead of cancelling it. New date: August 4th. Same excitement, just a safer night for it.⁠ ⁠ We know this isn't the news you wanted. We're sorry for the disappointment, and we appreciate you understanding why we made this call. ⁠ ⁠ More details on the updated event coming soon.⁠

Happy Father’s Day to all the Bordentown dads, grandfathers, stepdads, father figures, grill masters, sports coaches, corny joke tellers, “go ask your mother” experts, and everyone out there doing the dad thing their own way.

⁠Today’s for the early morning practices, the life advice, the fixing-things-that-probably-didn’t-need-fixing, the snack runs, the backyard games, and all the little moments that end up meaning the most.⁠

⁠We hope all the dads in our community get a chance to relax, enjoy some family time, and maybe even control the TV remote for once.
