Checking to see which night the fireworks will be held at the SCC

In the past, they have been on odd nights.

Thanks in advance!

The Springfield Country Club fireworks will be Wednesday, July 6th at dark. As is our tradition, any citizens who are not members of the club in good standing who are adjudged to be "staring into the night sky above the club for purposes of viewing the club's fireworks" will receive a summons for disturbing the peace and or have your car towed and impounded.

Just go to the ones in lorton they are much better than the country club crappy ones

Depends on when Judge Smails lets Chuck Schick out so we can set them up.

Just like last year, they will be held at 2 in the afternoon on July 4. Wear your darkest sunglasses for the greatest effect.

Sunday night, July 3

Approx at 8:45

Bring your lawn chairs to the Giant parking lot or to Washington Irving!

How stupid is this? What? Will there be cars parked in the Giant parking lot and police patrolling to arrest who's "staring into the night sky ...?"

Yeah, I'd join SCC in a heartbeat! NOT.

This is just too stupid to be real.

Same stupid thread, year after year. Give it up. And you are right, it is too stupid to be real.

Its Funny on Facebook TD Bank is pitching the Fireworks for Sunday Night, like its their event.. LOL

Yes, SCC is FCPD's largest sponsor and we have been for nearly 40 years. We didn't used to have tickets written and cars towed but ever since about 1994, as the brown, savage, illegal mud-people have moved into the area, it just really detracted from our previous whites only policy. The good news is, in the ensuing 20 years, the course has never looked and played better. Those savages can grow and cut some grass...

I asked this AM on SCC FB page: Are the fireworks on for tonight?

The official reply which you can read there yourself was: "Springfield Country Club We will not have any fireworks this year. However our restaurant Tavola will have a fireworks display on the 14th for their anniversary party. Reservations are recommended by calling 610-543-2100. Have a happy and safe holiday!"
When I got the reply I was already parked in my favorite watching spot across OKM from SCC. I don't think I have to explain what their reply says about their feelings toward us non-member peons!

Interesting...I was not aware the club had a 610 area code, what with us not being in Pennsylvania and all...

Those fireworks suck every year. Why would any one care.

Connonmn, you went to the wrong Springfield CC page.

The members of Springfield CC in Springfield, VA pay for the fireworks as part of their dues. They are held on private property so why would anyone expect them to invite non-members onto their property for the event? You can watch for free in many places around the club just not on their property. Maintaining a golf course is expensive - you can't just allow the general public to trample over it with coolers, lawn chairs and fireworks just to be good neighbors.

The Springfield Country Club is a real shithole. I don't know why anyone would pay the $600 initiation fee to join that waste of land. There are more brown spots on the greens than Krusty's clown boxers.
