The DelGrosso Family of Companies is gearing up for a summer time tradition like no other – Summer Thunder® 2016.  This year’s annual fireworks extravaganza is themed as “Splishin’ and Splashin Red, White & Blue”.

 

Summer Thunder® 2016 was postponed on July 4th due to fog and rain.  The fireworks show will now be held on Saturday July 9th at 10pm.  Pre-Show music will begin at 9pm.

 

“Each year we like to pick a theme for our show.  This year’s theme will celebrate our new Laguna Splash Water Park, so we have mixed in some fun summer water songs along with an array of patriotic favorites,” says Joe DelGrosso, Summer Thunder® Coordinator and President of DelGrosso Foods, Inc.  

 

Summer Thunder® is set to a music soundtrack that is developed by Dave Villani of Data Music Services in Altoona.  This year’s soundtrack includes a number of patriotic songs by various artists. A special theme moment in the middle of the show will feature summer fun water songs. The fireworks are designed by Arthur Rozzi Pyrotechnics from Maineville, OH.  Members of the Rozzi Family have been designing firework shows for DelGrosso’s Amusement Park for more than 50 years.  Over 4,000 shells will light up the night sky in Tipton during the 30 minute pyro-musical spectacular.

 

The Summer Thunder® musical pre-show will begin at 9pm.  Songs in the preshow include a number of hits by artists who passed way this last year including: Prince, Glenn Frey, Natalie Cole, Merle Haggard and Maurice White (Earth, Wind & Fire).
