Should Medford Have Its Own Fourth of July Fireworks?

Let us know what you think by posting a comment below.

Boston obviously has the main fireworks display on the Fourth of July, but neighboring Somerville, for instance, has its show before the holiday, on Thursday, June 27, this year.

As for Medford, it doesn’t have its own fireworks (other than a few illegal ones scattered about) or any Independence Day celebration for that matter.

Should the city or a local organization spring for Fourth of July fireworks? Or maybe an outdoor concert or festival?
