2011 Kyle’s Kids Fireworks Stand
From June 28 through July 4th every year, we have a fireworks stand in front of the Dante Club on Grantland Avenue, just south of Herndon Avenue in Fresno. It’s just a short distance from the Fresno Aquarium property and gives us a great opportunity to interact with the neighborhood closest to our project while we sell “safe and sane” fireworks in memory of Kyle Runciman at the same time!
