Fireworks, parade spark concerns over crowds, costs

CRESWELL – The City of Creswell is considering what it would take to stage a safe and affordable Fourth of July Celebration. 

The Creswell Chamber of Commerce traditionally organized the celebration – that is, until the pandemic shut down tourism and the revenue associated with it. The Chamber has been nearly dormant for the past year, and with only two of the seven required board members, the Chamber is incapable of organizing the 2021 event.
