Fireworks in Steinbach - July 1, 2011

The City of Steinbach has planned a big fireworks display Sunday evening to celebrate Canada Day.

Public Relations officer Amber Reitsma says the event will take place at the Steinbach Soccer Park along Highway #52. She adds, "The last couple of years have gone really well with moving the festivities over to the Steinbach Soccer Park. We've seen our crowds grow". Reitsma says many families come out to the event and the kids love being able to run around in the soccer park while waiting for the fireworks to begin.

There will be food vendors on location including mini-donuts, hot dogs and home made Columbian ice cream.

Reitsma says the city will be distributing Canada flags and cupcakes starting at 9 p-m with the fireworks to start at 10:45.

Fireworks coordinator Troy Warkentin says their supplier has promised a bigger and better finale to this year's display.
