The first few minutes of Peekskill's 2009 fireworks display. They are launched from a platform on the Hudson River. It's been 400 years this year since Henry Hudson first sailed the River.
While we don't hold a candle to New York City's Hudson River fireworks, we have a good hometown tradition never the less. Beside the banks of the river being covered with picnicing revelers, there are always a good group of small boats on the water to catch the festivities.
This video was filmed from a balcony in downtown Peekskill - a great vantage point!
