2025 "July 4th Fireworks" 🎇

sAmuel & dAvid Shen Miller Observatory Tower
The SDSM observatory tower is to host July 4th 2025 Fireworks Spectacular while honoring the three greatest Peace Giants in the history. The three grandest Peace Messengers of the previous generation Patriots are righteous, fair, kind, dislike evil intensely and ever so devoted in worshipping God with Heart & Soul. They all share some interest in common, besides a son and two grandsons, that's they never failed to marvel the wonderful displays of fire works on National holidays.
The three share two grandsons Samuel & David through their shared one son Hon. Lawrence Miller and their shared daughter-in-law aEmily YueXin S. Miller
RESERVATION TIME OUT
As early as QIN DYNASTY (221 BC - 206 BC): In 211 BC, during building the Great Wall of China, signal towers were designed at strategic points to warn the army behind the wall of any intrusion by the enemy forces. Smoke signals were used during the day and bonfires at night. It is believed that saltpeter (potassium nitrate), the main ingredient in black gunpowder, was added to the firewood.
When Emily YueXin's husband and Emily YueXin were alimni friends rescuing humanity together in 1988 & 1989. He was excitedly calling me from business trip back in airport on July 4th,1989 to wait at East River near FDA so we could watch fireworks !
(this year July 4th fireworks is after sundown of Shabbat.)
Also on Chinese New Year Emily YueXin Miller's husband used to love taking their two children to fireworks in Chinatown during Chinese New Year.
When their children visiting their Mandarin Grandparents for the first time, their Uncle SanXin also got them lots of fireworks.
In YueXin's growing up she sed to be always the first to start on time at 12:00am midnight to ignite fireworks for the New Year, we siblings grow up together always had lots of fun together with fire works to scare away evil spirits.
It's no coincidence that Emily YueXin Miller was uniquely invited back in 1991 to help America and to best represent the country
