CARLYLE LAKE – Due to elevated water conditions that have impacted Point 1, the fireworks will be shot off from Lakeview Access Area for the Fireworks Spectacular scheduled for Saturday, 29 June. Lakeview Access Area is located at the east end of the Carlyle Lake Main Dam. During the Fireworks Spectacular, Lakeview Access Area and Chipmunk Nature Trail will be closed to the public for visitors’ safety. The Dam East Spillway Recreation Area will be open for parking/viewing of the fireworks. Once the fireworks begin, no one will be allowed to enter or exit the Dam East Spillway Recreation Area due to safety concerns. Viewing of the fireworks can best be seen from the west side of the top of the Carlyle Lake Main Dam, Dam West Day Use Area, McNair Beach, Dam East South Shore (Point 18), or from the water.
