A communication pose will be located at River Landing Amphitheatre.

“This area will be open to public attendance, however, since the Snowbirds will be conducting flyovers throughout the city, it is suggested that residents simply step outside their homes, sit in the nearest park or watch for the team out their office windows,” read the Crime Stoppers release.
