Access to several Port of Hood River waterfront properties will be limited beginning Tuesday as the Hood River Eye Openers Lions Club begins setting up its fireworks display just west of the mouth of the Hood River. The Spit will be closed from noon Tuesday to noon Thursday. Access to the sandbar from the Event Site will be closed at 7 p.m. Wednesday. The sandy area of the Marina Beach will also be closed at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, and once Marina Park parking areas are full, closed signs will be posted at the entrance. Parking will be free on the 4th on all of the newly metered Port-owned streets, but parking permits are still required for Event Site parking. Fireworks of any kind are prohibited on all Port properties, including the Marina and Waterfront areas.
