Sand Springs Sertoma Club cancels July 3rd fireworks show and Murder Mystery Dinner
/The 2020 Sand Springs Sertoma Fireworks display, scheduled for July 3, 2020, has been postponed until July 3, 2021, due health and safety concerns from the COVID-19 virus.
The Sertoma Club has hosted an annual fireworks show on July 3rd since 1989, but this is the third time in the past four years that the event has been canceled. In 2017 the club had to cancel their show due to construction in Case Community Park. In 2019, it was called off due to extensive flood damage after the entirety of Case Park was submerged for more than a week.
Also, The Sand Springs Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre presented by the Sand Springs Sertoma Club and Women’s Chamber of Commerce scheduled for August has been cancelled due to health and safety concerns from the COVID-19 virus. Each August the nonprofit organizations hold a silent auction, banquet, and murder mystery show to raise money for individuals with hearing and speech impairments. The Murder Mystery Dinner is their biggest fundraiser of the year, and it's a blast. Participants are given a back story, clues, and the opportunity to interrogate local actors to try and guess who committed the murder.
