View the Firecracker Ceremony

On the day the festivities officially begin, make it a priority to view the annual firecracker celebration at Sarah D. Roosevelt Park. A must-see, the firecracker ceremony is enacted to ward off bad spirits from entering the new year. Maybe you’ll get lucky and it will ward off that super clingy ex-boyfriend. One can hope, right?
