Fireworks, events ready for Thunder Over Eddy Bay

There’ll be music, crafts, food, fireworks and fun at the eighth annual Thunder Over Eddy Bay from 4 p.m. to midnight July 5.
Mandy Carney, co-owner of Eddy Creek Marina Resort, the Thunder site, said all activities will begin at 4 p.m. The fireworks will begin about 9 p.m.
Buses will run from West Kentucky Outlet Center to the marina from 4 p.m. to midnight. And Cat Daddy will provide music during those same hours.
Activities will include food and craft vendors, inflatables and a dunking booth.
A pontoon boat will shuttle boaters who want to come ashore, and T-shirts and ice will be sold on the boat.
Carney said the boat ramps at the marina will close and no wake buoys will be put out at 5 p.m. Saturday.
Other fireworks displays in the region are:
 Kentucky Dam Marina at dusk on the Fourth of July.
Marshall County Judge-Executive Mike Miller said after learning Kentucky Dam Village State Resort Park wouldn’t have fireworks this year, marina co-owner Rick Leeper called him asking if he could help.
“I just thought it was such a tradition, and I had some people I could contact” to help with financing, Miller said. “Rick got on the phone, and it wasn’t two hours until he called back and said they had enough sponsors.”
Miller said he took care of securing the permit, which is required by the state fire marshal.
 AmeriBration in Calvert City — 9 p.m. July 4.
 Moor’s Resort and Marina on Kentucky Lake in Marshall County — July 3.
 Freedom Fest in Murray — 9 p.m. July 5.
