LAKEFEST ANNOUNCES “FUND THE FESTIVAL” CAMPAIGN

Culver, it’s time.

We’re officially kicking off our “Fund the Festival” campaign for the 42nd Annual Culver Lakefest — July 17–19, 2026.

This year’s theme, “Always On Duty,” honors the Police, Fire, and EMS personnel who serve our community every day.

Lakefest is 100% funded by our community. It takes approximately $60,000 each year to bring the festival to life — from fireworks and live entertainment to the essentials that make it all possible.

We have the next 80 days to make it happen — and we need your help.

👉 Every dollar matters
👉 Every donation makes a difference
👉 Every supporter keeps this tradition alive

“Lakefest has always been and will always be about this community and the people in it. But traditions don’t sustain themselves. They are carried forward by people who care enough to give their time, their energy, and their support — and we couldn’t do this without each of you.”

Visit www.LakefestCulver.com to give today!
