Whitewater 4th of July Committee Update: No Carnival After All, but Fireworks Still On

By the Whitewater 4th of July Committee

It is with sadness that we must announce to the Whitewater community that our carnival owner will be unable to come this year due to financial reasons. As the Christman family has been part of our festival family for more than 15 years, we will sincerely miss their presence on this holiday. 2020 has been a year unlike anything that most of us have seen, and we appreciate their need to preserve their financial stability in making this hard decision. We look forward to their return in 2021. 


Fireworks will still continue at 10 p.m. on Saturday, July 4th and will be visible in the Cravath Lakefront Park as well as the grassy hill commonly known as “killer hill.” We would ask that all community members choosing to enjoy the fireworks still follow social distancing guidelines in remaining six feet away from individuals not a part of their household and strongly advise that all attendees of the show wear a face cover.
