Local businesses, organizations, and churches are invited to sponsor and host events that showcase the best of our community. Think hot dog eating contest, pie bakes, a 5k, relay races, and music filling our summer nights — and your group right at the heart of it all! Sponsoring an event is your chance to shine, connect with neighbors, and leave your mark on America’s 250th birthday celebration.

​

Running an event is your chance to shine with community spirit and creativity. Sponsors will be asked to submit three event ideas (see list below or add your own), after which organizers will assign and schedule them to avoid overlap. Sponsors will be recognized for their contributions in making this hometown festival a memorable, once-in-a-lifetime celebration.  Sponsors who run events also have the option to host the event at their own location or in one of our community parks.
