Tell Us: Safe Holiday Weekend?

Was this Fourth of July safer than previous ones?

This year's Fourth of July came and went with few sparks or serious emergency reports, minus one fight in Bayville.

As residents gathered on and off the water to celebrate their country and watch fireworks, a year-old tragedy was still in the minds of many.

Do you believe waters and communities were safer this Fourth of July? Do you think after the anniversary of the Oyster Bay capsizing made people more aware or observant? Tell us in the comments.
