July 4th Fireworks Fundraising is underway! |
It's back for 2022! The Ramona Chamber of Commerce, Ramona Rotary Club and the Kiwanis Club of Ramona are proud to bring back the Annual 4th of July Family Picnic and Fireworks Display!
We need to raise about $40,000; the price has gone up nearly $4,500 from last year.
Again we are holding a drawing for a storage building complete with floor, steel door, and small window--constructed and donated by Nick Jordan and his students at Montecito High School. (THANK YOU so much!) Ticket proceeds directly benefit the fireworks fund.
Scroll down to see the latest photos of the shed - it's fully painted now and even more beautiful!
