Well, don`t expect anything that elaborate this year! But I doubt that PKI has totally forgotten what day it is.

I think there are fireworks on the 31st.

If they had a ball on the needle were the beacons are, when the call reached the base of the needle at 12:00am Fireworks could get lunched off of the tower and around the base. Also after the fireworks there could be lights that come on brightly and move around the tower like a spot lights. They could use the same set up as they do for Nights of Fire, they would just do more New Year or Holiday Colors. Also it would be as much fireworks as Nights of Fire.

Plus, does it have to be a ball? On the same subject of having a light show, they could have smart lights progressivly lighting up the tower and hitting the top at the stroke of midnight to bust out in a lights show with fireworks.

Now that would be really cool! And, much more exciting than a dropping ball...

And it could be a Great new year tradition one of the local channels could show it live . And it would be Cincinnati's and the whole area New Years eve celebration for years and years to come:

Wish I'd said that. <G>

That is a really neat idea though! I would love to see the park do something like this! They could turn drop zone into the ball drop. String lights all over the chair ring and drop it so it hits the bottom right at midnight. That would be awesome!

Deja Vu anyone?
