As the two grand finales of fireworks went off simultaneously during the 2015 Independence on the Square in Covington, some spectators staring up at the illuminated sky had tears trickling down their face. The sheer volume of the colorful explosives struck an emotional chord with many of the estimated 8,000 to 10,000 people gathered on the Covington Square on July 4, 2015. As this year’s Fourth of July approaches, Covington residents can expect another dose of fireworks and Independence Day festivities, but on an even bigger scale.
