Speaker Series – Lynden King on “Fireworks!”

Lynden has deep roots in Elk Grove, having grown up here and continuing to call the city home. He is an active member in many community groups and nonprofit organizations. He is also well- known as a master in designing and producing fireworks and drone shows for local events and special shows and celebrations throughout CA.
