Sorry I missed the fireworks, Darryl, (and could the Wing Dingers move their fest to another weekend?)

The Young at Heart festival was great, as usual, and the weather held up. I missed my favorite part, though, which is Mayor Darryl Lindberg’s party at the Penguin Golf Academy to watch the great fireworks show. It wasn’t on purpose, though. I had to attend my neice’s graduation ceremony from Bartlett High School, which started at 8 p.m. in the Sears Centre. That school district, U-46, had five high school graduations in the big barn in one day, starting at 8 a.m. As luck would have it, Bartlett’s was last.

I wish, however, that the organizers of the Wing Ding celebration of rock ‘n’ debauchery could move their show to another date that didn’t conflict with Young at Heart.
