In what might be described as a “better late than never” moment, the town of Northbridge’s annual fireworks display will take place not on the holiday weekend but rather on Saturday, July 16, at the Middle School.

  The show will coincide with the town’s 250th-anniversary festivities. Rain date for the pyrotechnics is Sunday, July 17th.

  Activities will kick off with a parade at 10:00 a.m. and will include trolley tours of the historical district. Gates open at 6:00 for the remainder of the event, which according to the 250th Anniversary Committee will include food trucks, facing painting and more.

  The 250th has already been observed with a spaghetti supper and other happenings.
