Potsdam chamber raising money for fireworks display, seeks donations

Posted

POTSDAM -- The Potsdam Chamber of Commerce is fundraising for a fireworks display planned July 14 as part of the 50th Potsdam Summer Festival celebration.

“We are holding various fundraising events, like a mini golf tourney, bowling night, and finding business sponsors,” said Chamber Executive Director Marylee Balou.

The bowling fun night takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. at Market Lanes on March 23. Businesses willing to sponsor portions of the event are asked to contact the chamber at 274-9000. The chamber is seeking lane and snack sponsors.

They have also set up a GoFundMe page to collect donations.

“The GoFundMe page is like a donation jar in our office, but this online donation jar allows any one to donate if they wish…from college alumni, past residents, current residents, and people who just like fireworks,” she said.
