Fireworks held throughout county

The Fourth of July is always a special time in the area. Last night, the Red Bank fireworks display was incredible, as usual. Traffic was what traffic is in Red Bank for the fireworks. But it was a great family event.

Dr. Andrew Walsh and his wife, school board member and Democratic candidate for Township Committee Patricia Walsh, hosted their annual fireworks party at their River Plaza home, which brought out scores of people. Some of those that attended the event included Middletown Committeeman Patrick Short and his family, Holmdel Committeeman Larry Fink and his family, Middletown Committeeman Sean Byrnes and his family, Middletown Democratic Chairman Joseph Caliendo and his family, as well as Bayshore Young Dems Chairman Matthew Morehead and his family, among others.

It was a very big event with great food and a lot of spirit. Click on the headline to go to the APP for a story about area-wide events.
