Fireworks may make it back to Salisbury for a second year in a row since it was revived after a seven year hiatus.

Former City Council President Mike Dunn told the Salisbury Daily Times that organizers plan for another Red, White and Boom celebration which took place last year at a vacant lot owned by Salisbury University.

It lasted 35 minutes with the fireworks, shooting up as high as 600 feet into the night sky.

The nearby Wayne Street will once again be turned into “Americana Avenue with food vendors, local nonprofits and entertainment.

Dunn said the organizers are looking to raise $20-thousand which would cover the cost the show itself.

He said he has already paid the $10-thousand deposit with Fireworks Extravaganza.

The contractor is involved in the fireworks displays at Delmarva Shorebirds games and in Snow Hill.

Dunn is also the former corporate donor manager for Delmarva Public Radio.
