Kidz Night is on the Londonderry Town Common on Thursday Aug 14 from 5:30-8:30 PM. There will be bounce houses galore! Come for the clowns, food, games and activities. Climb into a fire engine! Get a wonderful back-to-school pencil from the Londonderry police officers. (The blog queen does this every year because she needs lots of pencils to write with!)

This fantastic event is designed for families with kids aged 10 and under.

Last year two thousand people (most of them kids) attended Kidz Night on Thursday at the Common.

Will and Sean were dazzled by the newly crowned Miss Londonderry, Elysha Greenberg. A friend asked, “Were you born Miss Londonderry?”

Clowns made amazing animal balloons for the young crowd!

Who will win the sack race?

A giant turtle tried to run free!

Surprise guest Shrek and Puss in Boots!

Sean enjoyed his seat on the cannon!

Alex was interested in the Science show at the bandstand.

The Senior Cookout beings at 5 PM and ends at 6 PM on Wed Aug 13! Tickets are required; call Carole Connolly at 434-7568. Come on down to the Lions Pavilion for a great free feast!

The Windham Swing Band is sure to delight folks of all ages in a fantastic Concert on the Common. Yes, you heard me right, anyone of any age can attend this outstanding event! Look how much fun folks had in 2007!

The Lions grilled up delicious hamburgers, and served 165 seniors!

Carole Connolly did the hard work of coordinating the cookout, and Jim and Doris Finch were delighted to pose with her!

The concert by the Windham swing band was fantastic! A fun and musical evening under the stars!

Rain location: Londonderry High School cafeteria (both events)

Put on your dancing shoes for Friday August 15! Here, some Londonderry young folks enjoy the excitement of a rock concert before the fireworks display.

Young Sean and Alex got a chance to show some dance moves while they enjoyed the excitement!

Friday night the place to be is in front of Londonderry High School. The fireworks start at 8:30 PM. This year fireworks are provided by a company run by Londonderry folks.

The “Souled Out” band will once again rock the joint with their great music. Get there early to hear the band.

Don’t forget a chair or blanket to sit on.

Here are some photos of great fireworks! Thanks to Steve Young for taking these photos.
