Cockeysville, Maryland

Fireworks and symphony rock the Cockeysville hills When the hillsides are illuminated by bursts of color that reveal thousands of cheering people; when blasts of fireworks resound over the northern Baltimore County countryside like thunder on steroids and keep time to the beat of drums and horns that echo over the valley for miles, it can only signal one seasonal opening — the start of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s summer season at Oregon Ridge Park.
