At 5:45 there will be a Kenpo Karate demonstration. At 6:30 juggler Peter Panic will entertain audiences. From 7:30 to 8 p.m. children and adults of all ages can take part in a DJ sing along.

At 8 p.m. the Band of Liberty's Afterburner will take the stage to entertain audiences with rock music. Amusement rides and food and beverage stations will close shortly thereafter and fireworks will begin a 9 p.m.
