An early start to the show is better for kids | LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor:
Bainbridge’s fireworks are wonderful; not quite Washington, D.C.’s, but, citizen for citizen, in the league.
But - they start too late. Kids who’d enjoy them are in bed by 10:20 p.m.
Bainbridge is the family-friendliest place I know, but late-night July Fourth fireworks are not.
