THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR GENEROUS DONORS!

Thank you to these businesses and families for their generous donations 

that will support this year!

Thank You

The Akron Celebration Committee would like to thank all of our supporters for making this years Fourth of July Celebration a huge success. Celebrating the Town’s Bicentennial brought in many additional events as well as large crowds for the fireworks and Fourth of July parade. A special thank you to Dan Kowalik and the “parking crew”.  Without the combined efforts of all of the Volunteers, these events could not be possible.
