The Stars & Stripes Committee, a committee of the Petoskey Area Junior Chamber (Jaycees) is in full swing planning the 2015 Petoskey Fourth of July Celebration. Efforts are well underway with the excitement ramping up as we approach the one-month mark.

Recently, you should have received a fundraising mailing from the Committee. For those of you that have been previous donors, you received a letter with three "tickets" encouraging you to challenge your friends to give to the event. For those businesses that may not have given to the event before, you received a letter that included two giving opportunities - "Adopt a Firework"and a Donor Level Form. We hope that you will put the Stars & Stripes Committee and the Celebration on your donation list.

For those generous donors that sent us a check but received it back in the mail, this was due to a glitch at the post office. They have assured us that the issue is resolved. If you would kindly re-send your check to PO Box 2361, Petoskey, MI 49770, that would be greatly appreciated. The Petoskey Regional Chamber of Commerce has also offered to accept checks, if you would rather drop them off there. Or, you can visit us this Friday, June 5th during the Downtown Petoskey Summer Open House, we would be happy to accept it then. We will be located downtown with our Human Checkerboard and other backyard games.
We are also accepting donations online via our website: www.petoskeystarsandstripes.com. Just click on the "donate" button to submit a donation via a secure link with PayPal.
Thank you for your support of the Petoskey Stars & Stripes Committee. We are looking forward to celebrating with you, our independence, history, and freedom through an event that encourages camaraderie and community. By celebrating, we show pride in honoring our victories, talents, achievements, and perseverance.
