Three SRAs will allow fireworks on July 4
Guests at three state recreation areas will be allowed to touch off fireworks on the Fourth of July.
Power has been restored at Wildcat Hills State Recreation Area south of Gering and all systems, including water, are available.
Most of the park’s facilities, including the Wildcat Hills Nature Center, had closed temporarily because of a power outage caused by a windstorm last weekend. The park trails and campgrounds had remained open.
