A costly Fourth?

July 1, 2008 - 9:10am

According to Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz, since some fireworks were legalized in 2002, the cost of property damage and personal injuries caused by fireworks has jumped. For more on the real cost of fireworks and what you can and can’t legally buy, read Thursday’s issue of the Jordan Independent. (File photo)

On the 4th, downtown Jordan probably rivaled the show in New Prague. Excellent show.

As someone who has lived in Jordan for 11 years now, I am surprised that Jordan does not have a 4th of July parade. Is there a reason?

My hometown in SD has a terrific parade every year as does my husband's home town in Iowa.

We did not travel for the 4th of July this year. We would have liked to have had a parade to go to.

I’m not really that surprised that Jordan doesn't have a parade on the Fourth. Our town has a number of excellent parades throughout the year, and a community of this size can only support so many parades.

Of course, I could be wrong. While I didn't see many people in Jordan on the afternoon or evening of July 4, the town was a pretty hopping place during the morning and early afternoon. That might be a good time for a parade.
