Even with mother nature raining down, the 20th annual fireworks and festival have come to a close. I have a lot of thank you's for many people in their help to pull this all together and keeping everyone safe.
Thank you to Pam Williams, Jim Bowser, Corey and Alyssa Pistininzi and their girls for helping with donations, set up, flyers, car cruise, enduring the heat and rain thank you all. And anything else I may have forgot.
To John Radvansky for lending his knowledge and help with the car cruise.
A very big thank you to the fire and police departments for keeping everyone safe with a special thanks to Brian and the fire police for the coordination to make this all happen safely. Also to the electricians Jim, Chris, and Kyle for set up and take down so yummy food could be enjoyed.
To my husband and son for their patience so I could get things done in the evenings, weekends, and off days. Also for the help at the event and making it a family affair, Love you both.
To the public works department for getting the area cleaned up before and after the event. Getting the equipment to the site and helping with the signs and banners.
To all of our vendors who weathered the storm, literally :) and the heat. Hopefully next year mother nature will be kind to us all and give us that perfect weather day for the event. The food, products, tickets, information and smiling faces were all terrific. The DJ kept playing and made it through the weather with the equipment to keep the dancing in the street going.
Now a huge thank you to all of the donors and participants. Without the donors this event would not be possible. The participants make the event continue.
To Ace Pyro for a great display.
To anyone else I may have forgotten (sorry in advance) but thank you for all your help and efforts.
One final thank you to my mom, who started this 20 years ago and showed me how to be the person I am to continue this great tradition.
Now it is time to start raising funds for next year!!! I hope you all are a part of this again and we can continue to grow!!!
Thank you All,
Erika
