Photos: Fourth of July fireworks show in Orient

Fireworks in Orient

Hundreds of people lined up along the causeway, pier and beach Saturday night to watch a spectacular fireworks show in Orient.

A barge was anchored near the Orient Yacht Club, giving folks a perfect vantage point to watch the display put on by Grucci fireworks.

The return of fireworks to Orient was spearheaded by Theodore Strauel, a member of the Orient Yacht Club, and a community fundraising campaign.
