The Bayles Lake and Lake Iroquois community is reminded that the annual fireworks show is Saturday, July 1 this year, (July 2 is the rain date). The show will start at 9:00 p.m. The launch site will again be from Skyline Drive / Newell Dam at Bayles Lake.

Homeowners received a letter, in April, asking for donations. Your donations will drive the length and quality of the show and we hope that we will again have high participation from all homeowners. We will again be adding music to this great event, a DJ will be broadcasting his music from the beach house area.

If you have not yet had the opportunity to make a donation, it is not too late. Please send your donation to: Bayles Lake Fireworks, Federated Bank of Loda, P.O. Box 305, Loda, Il 60948.

Last year, it was fun and amazing to see so many families and boats on the water on both lakes and so many hosting family and social events. Everyone enjoyed the sights and sounds of the celebration. It turned out to be a great family event and we are excited to present this year’s show.
