Be the coolest party host in town this Fourth of July weekend when you and 15 of your friends watch the Fair Saint Louis fireworks from one of St. Louis’ spectacular views - atop the 170-foot-tall Compton Hill Water Tower, the second highest vantage point in St. Louis behind the Arch. You will be able to pick either Friday July 2nd, Saturday July 3rd, or Monday July 4th, 2011
The Water Tower & Park Preservation Society is raffling off an opportunity to win a private party for you and 15 friends in the Tower’s viewing platform during the Fair Saint Louis fireworks display on Friday July 2nd, Saturday July 3rd, or Monday July 4th, 2011. The 360 degree view from the top of the historic Tower stretches as far as Illinois and the Jefferson Barracks Bridge, with a spectacular view of downtown St. Louis and the Gateway Arch. The Compton Hill Water Tower is located at the Southeast corner of the Highway 44 exit to Grand Blvd. You will be able to go up in the Tower 1/2 hour prior to the firework display. Fireworks start at 9 pm. Raffle tickets are just $10.00 and can be purchased at the Water Tower openings on Saturday May 7, June 4th, from Noon to 4 pm or at the Full Moon Openings on April 17th, May 17th or June 15th, from 7pm to 11pm. NOTE - There are 198 stairs and seven landings to the top of the Tower. This historic structure predates compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The
winner will
be drawn on Thursday, June 16th.
Proceeds from the raffle will help
support The Water
Tower and Park Preservation Society’s efforts to restore the
Tower, which was built in 1898, and its surrounding park back to its
original
historic, Victorian splendor. |
