BEND, OR -- The east side parking lot at Pilot Butte State Park will not be open the 4th of July. Park Manager Joe Wanamaker says the fireworks show is from the top of the butte and is visible from a long distance. He says they’re asking people not to park in nearby neighborhoods either because parking is extremely limited. Wanamaker says people who walk to the park for the fireworks are asked to wear a mask where social distancing may not be possible. He says no large gatherings outside of single-family groups.
