Siesta Seen Additionally, the Chamber is selling Tervis Tumblers with the 2014 Fireworks Celebration logo for $20 each. Those are available at the Chamber office at 5114 Ocean Blvd. (Davidson Plaza) in Siesta Village and at Midnight Cove, where Tomasso is the general manager; they, too, will be sold at the July 3 party. When we talked on June 3, Tomasso explained that she began volunteering at the Chamber's visitor center about 11 years ago; this is her fourth year on the Chamber board and her third year chairing the fireworks committee. "Even before I was involved [with the Chamber]," she continued, "I always pre- ferred the Siesta [fireworks show]." The same person has been handling the pyro- technics for the past 10 years, she added. He comes down to the key from north of Tampa. Although it may sound corny, Tomasso said, given all the work that volunteers put into the July Fourth picnic and fireworks show, watching people enjoying the event "just really makes it worth it," especially seeing how much delight children take in the sky County staff appears close to implementing a parking plan the County Commission approved on April 9 for North Shell Road.
