NORWICH – The Norwich Firefighters Field Days will kick off at 5 p.m. July 2 at the Chenango County Fairgrounds, culminating Sunday night with a performance by national recording artist Jason Michael Carroll, followed by the annual Fourth of July Fireworks over the Fairgrounds display.

While there will be no cost of admission for Friday night’s festivities, which will feature a wide variety of rides and games, food, drink and entertainment by DJ Frank Goodrich, non-perishable food or monetary donations will be accepted at the gate, said Norwich Firefighters Association Vice President and Field Days co-chair Wayne Law.
