Not that I know of, Peggy.

Welcome to Talk of the Villages, locally known as TOTV.

No fireworks Peggy ... it would just wake everyone up and they'd be really annoyed!

Just kidding, but it isn't the livliest place at midnight ... except for some bars and country club parties.

I see this is your first post. Welcome home! The best is yet to come.

Welcome to you. Hope you love it here. Happy New Year and every good wish.

Fireworks on New Years Eve is foreign to me.

Must be another local custom, but not MY local.

The U.S. is great.

I have heard there are even groups who start their celebration early with the clock advanced by two or three hours so they can get home early?

The biggest loss of an amenity in TV was when they took away the most perfect venue we have ever participated in and that was celebrating the night away in TV town squares. Always a huge turn out....always a good time had by all. And then, for still a really unknown reason, it was TERMINATED!

There are still a lot of commercial establishments and private parties that provide a great party for those who choose to participate.

Happy New Year....

I said I hadn't heard of fireworks around here on New Years and what is on our local news tonight but talk of fireworks downtown on New Years.

Please don't ever pay much attention to what I say.

With the 13K acres burned in Brevard County, and not yet extinguished, I'd be surprised to see any....then there's Mickey Mouse town.

Hi Peggy B,
May your new year be filled with all the fun and joy and friendships TV has to offer.

Fumar, I'm sure you must have been a stand-up comedian in your previous life.

Someone once told me that I was quite the comedian, but then they followed up by saying "but don't give up your day job!"
