Celebrate: July 4th - Fireworks at Ft. Dix - 2007

On July 4, Fort Dix will host a nighttime celebration starting at 6 p.m. on Doughboy Field.

The evening's entertainment will include an aerial parachuting demonstration by the Army Silver Wings Parachute Team of Fort Benning, Ga. and country music star Craig Morgan. The 307th Army Rock Show Band, will also perform, and at 9:30 p.m., a fireworks display will start.

The display is the largest in South Jersey, and has been a part of Fort Dix tradition since 1944.

Parking will be reserved for vehicles with the proper decals, but shuttle buses will be provided for those who do not have decals. Starting at 5 p.m., buses will depart from the Air Mobility Warfare Center, Helen A. Fort Middle School, Fort Dix Elementary School and the Wrightstown Circle Area.

Shuttle buses will run continuously between the field and the parking areas. Signs will be posted directing traffic to authorized parking spaces and the location of the bus pick-up.

A photo ID is required for all adults and children age 12 or older.

Guests are invited to bring lawn chairs and blankets. No coolers allowed (food and drink venders available). Pets will not be permitted access to Fort Dix or in the Doughboy Field area. Barbeques, open fires and private fireworks will not be permitted on the field.
