Skies are clearing and storm watches have been lifted. It should be a great night for July 4 fireworks at Mills Park in Carson City.
RSVP is host of the 4th of July Celebration and Carnival in Mills Park, now in its 23rd year. Carson City Toyota-Scion has partnered with RSVP and Cumulus Media to provide a live radio remote on Magic 95.5 FM which is live and on-air now, that will lead up to a broadcast of patriotic music and simulcast to the fireworks display at dusk.
Pack up food and refreshments for a picnic, an umbrella or two just in case and head to Mills Park, or any high point in Carson City, and tune into Magic 95.5FM for a synchronized soundtrack of music and eye-popping sky candy for the whole family. See the video blow.
The RSVP Carnival at Mills Park continues tonight through midnight and starts back up again Sunday morning.
