Fireworks Fundraiser Kickoff
The planned power outage has forced the Cameron County Fireworks to change the date of the fundraiser kickoff. It will now be held Friday May 19 from 11am to 2pm. Emporium Food Market will provide hotdogs, chips and drinks for the price of $2. All of the funds collected will be donated to the fireworks fund. Volunteers will have ducks available for adoption. You can pick a single duck for $2 or a 6-quack for $10. The ducks will race Saturday July 1 prior to the launching of the fireworks.
The price of fireworks has increased this year and the committee is adding a new fundraiser. Amy Hunt produces a limited number of 20-ounce steel tumblers. The tumblers highlight a photo captured by Eventide Photography depicting fireworks. A purchase of the $25 tumbler comes with the opportunity to win $500 cash. Only 100 tumblers will be sold. The tumblers will be available for sale at the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce office.
“We are so fortunate to have the support of Amy and the staff from Emporium Food Market to kick off the fundraising for the popular event. It draws hundreds to their seasonal camps and from neighboring communities,” said chamber director Tina Johns Solak. The fireworks are set to blast off from the Cameron County High School Football Stadium Saturday July 1 at 9:45pm
