Waterfire is always a community favorite.
and, it brings in millions of dollars and tax revenue every year to the local economy , through hotel stays and restaurant visits.
Waterfire will be held tomorrow …
the fires will be lit shortly after sunset which is 8:23 PM-m.
If you weren't able to catch fireworks on the fourth of July …
