I think it's kind of cool that Amy from visit Gettysburg addressed this on another post:

Hello, this is Amy from http://www.visit-gettysburg.com
I'm sorry the news on my calendar was such a disappointment! I'm sad, too. It was a nice fireworks display. Anyway, my source for this news was Aunt Alice. She plays Bingo at the firehall regularly. I have not spoken with the firemen's association nor have I heard about any alternative event plans. They have to do something for a fundraiser, don't they? If you learn anything, please let me know! I actually live south of Gettysburg near Westminster, MD. We're having problems funding the local fireworks display here, so I don't know where to go this year. At least there are still carnivals around in the area, if not in Gettysburg. Harney's carnival is July 5-10. http://www.harneyfire11.org/

Hello, again! I did some more investigating, and it's Hanover, PA that changed their carnival for this year. YES, there WILL be a Gettysburg Carnival with fireworks on July 2!!! Please see my updated calendar of events.

And again, this Amy is not my friend Amy who told me there would be fireworks because the Gettysburg Borough mailed her a notice about it. Kind of confusing with all the Amys.

And as my mom points out, it's a moot point for me since we'll be in Maine anyway.
