Worth the wait

Belgium’s fireworks display was delayed from Friday to Saturday due to rain. Village public works employee Pat Wester said the crowd was about the same as in the past, but this year more people stayed near their vehicles in the parking lot or along the road to watch the show. Most people in Heritage Park maintained social distancing due to Covid-19, he said. The village received many compliments and no complaints about the show after the Village Board voted, 6-1, to hold it. Photo by Sam Arendt
