The Wrap

A one-night community party is coming to Arvada's Stenger Soccer Complex on Fri., Nov. 6: Food Trucks and Fireworks pairs local food trucks with a professionally produced fireworks display. The fireworks were postponed from the City's Fourth of July celebration, so you can eat dinner out of a truck window and look up at them in November. Bring a jacket, since the forecast has lows in the 30s. Dinner and a show, sorted.
