Today,
Boston's Fourth of July is known as the premier Independence Day
celebration in the nation. Each year, since its inception, hundreds
of thousands of people come from all over the country to the banks
of the Charles River to celebrate America's birthday. Actually,
surveys show 34 percent of the live audience comes to the event
from outside New England!

| Every Fourth of
July, the area along the Charles River in Boston is filled with
many people who gather to enjoy the historic annual Fourth of
July celebration. The Pops concert begins at 8 p.m. and the fireworks
follow it for 30 minutes. To enjoy this evening event, people
crowd onto the riverbank throughout the day to get the best seats
possible.
It's a good idea to learn about the event in advance. You can
access area information, the concert program, the list of performers,
the music scores for the background music played during the fireworks,
and other useful information at the official Boston's Fourth of
July Web site, http://www.july4th.org. |
 |
| Some
of the must-have information on this Web site is about the restricted
"Hatch Shell Oval Area," the area with the best seats
for viewing the evening festivities. The page is
located under General Event Information - Event Restrictions.
An example of the page that was posted for the 2002
celebration is shown below.

| If
you are going to stake out the restricted Hatch Shell Oval Area,
you should keep this information handy for you to prepare for

your mouse, right-click, and select Save To Palm in the shortcut
menu.

can also save the large map as an image file. Simply right-click
on the large image of the map and select Save To Palm.

 |
 |
| Event schedules and programs will
soon be posted online. Once they are posted, you
can save them to your Palm
so that you can access them at the riverbank while you wait. For example,
below is an image of the 2002 fireworks music scores Web page (it was
located under
Fireworks - The Score). To save this list to your Palm, select
the text by dragging your mouse, right-clicking, and selecting
Save To Palm in the shortcut menu.

| With
this information handy, you won't need to be embarrassed when your
friend or a small child asks the title of the music that accompanies
the beautiful fireworks. Just take a glance at your Palm... you
will be able to answer them confidently. |
