CRAWFORD, Neb. — The Crawford Chamber of Commerce will kick off its annual Independence Day Parade with a thrilling F-16 flyover on July 4, 2025, performed by Kent Moody, call sign “Levi.”

Moody, a commander with the 162nd Wing of the Air National Guard in Tucson, Arizona, will lead the aerial salute. The 162nd is the largest flying wing in the Air National Guard and plays a key role in training both U.S. and foreign military pilots — including personnel from Ukraine — on the F-16 Fighting Falcon.

The unit also maintains a 24/7 Aerospace Control Alert (ACA) mission, where pilots and ground crew remain on constant standby to defend U.S. airspace. Moody currently serves as the commander of the ACA detachment.

The flyover will mark the start of Crawford’s patriotic celebration, continuing a proud tradition of honoring military service and American independence.

July 4 th is nearing and the Chadron Police Department would like to remind everyone of the City Ordinances pertaining to fireworks.

Within the City of Chadron, permissible fireworks can be discharged starting on June 24 th and ending on July 5 th .&nbsp;

 June 24 th through July 3 rd permissible fireworks can be discharged from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m.&nbsp;

 July 4 th permissible fireworks can be discharged from 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 a.m. on July 5 th .&nbsp;

It is unlawful to discharge fireworks within 300 feet of a fireworks stand, gas station, or in a public park.&nbsp; Fireworks may be discharged at other times upon obtaining a special permit approved by the Chadron City Council.&nbsp;All local vendors will have what is considered to be permissible fireworks.

While enjoying fireworks and the holiday, remember these safety tips:

 Never try to re-light or pick up fireworks that have not ignited fully.

 Never point or throw fireworks at another person.

 Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy in case of fire or other mishap.

 Light fireworks one at a time, then move back quickly.

 Never carry fireworks in a pocket or shoot them off in metal or glass containers.

 After fireworks complete their burning, douse the spent device with plenty of water from a bucket or hose before discarding it to prevent a trash fire.

 Report inappropriate or misuse of fireworks to the Chadron Police Department @ 432-0510
