One of the best places to view until a change in nineteen,
Bombs bursting in air we can say that we have seen;
Then under the “O” shouts out our longtime friend John,
And over towards an entrance to fun a trail you can get on.
Explanation:
​Location of fireworks was moved from old Cook site to Anoka Ramsey property in 2019 , not far but caused the viewing by the bingo tent and Fire Chief John's calls to be less than spectacular, not John's calling but the fireworks viewing, when the fireworks come back it sounds like they plan to move them back to Cook. Entrance to Carnival on last line.
