NEW YEARS EVE FIREWORKS IN ALDERSON What   better   way   to   say   goodbye   to   an   old   year   and   hello   to   a   new   one   than   fireworks!      Sponsored   by Alderson   Main   Street   and   the Town   of Alderson   and   performed   by   the Alderson   Volunteer   Fire   Department, a fireworks display can be seen at 9:00 p.m. on New Year’s Eve from the Alderson Memorial Bridge.  Supported   by   a   grant   from   a   local   foundation,   this   family-friendly   event   allows   family   units   to   be   outside and   distance.      There   are   plans   for   a   couple   of   fire   pits   and   some   hot   dogs,   popcorn,   and   baked   goods   for sale.  Proceeds benefit a woman who has cancer. There   is   plenty   of   parking   in   the   historic   business   district   on   the   Monroe   County   side   of Alderson   and   in   the parking   lot   of   the   Visitors   Center/Fruits   of   Labor   Café   on   the   Greenbrier   County   side.      It   is   only   a   short   walk to the Alderson Memorial Bridge.  If the weather is rainy or snowy, the fireworks will be canceled. Please check the Alderson Main Street facebook page for the latest information.  https://www.facebook.com/Alderson-Main-Street- 594432723925664/  Outgoing   Main   Street   President   Judy   Lohmeyer   said,   “What   better   way   to   end   my   tenure   as   president   than fireworks!  Please come and enjoy them!”  Photo   caption:      Fireworks   reflected   in   the   Greenbrier   River   in   Alderson   on   New   Year’s   Eve   in   2019.   (click on photo for larger view)
