New laser debut glitchy

The new laser light show came off with a 45-minute glitch Saturday night.

A mechanical problem kept lookers aghast at the celebrated debut of the show.

After the initial show Saturday night, the laser debut got an ovation, according to Bureau of Reclamation Public Affairs Officer Lynne Brougher.

The show came off Sunday and Monday nights without any trouble.

“I’ve received mixed reviews,” Brougher said.

The show played without benefit of water spilling over the spillway of the dam because the level of Lake Roosevelt is still below the spillway gates.

“We will be able to spill water sometime this week,” Brougher stated.

The all-new laser light show was created by LumaLaser of Eugene, Oregon, at a bid cost of $1.6 million.

The show comes on now every night at 10 p.m.
