Stars & Stripes Celebration a Go, Thanks to Sponsors

There was that a lack of financial support might mean no fireworks in Enumclaw this year, but as is the tendency with this town, people stepped up, so the party is happening -- parade and fireworks!

Michelle Larson, recreation manager for the city of Enumclaw and committee chair shared Thursday that among other donations, several businesses and individuals deserved a particularly big thanks:

A very special thank you to our Parade Sponsors ($1,500 level):

• Treat’s Heating & Cooling
• Mutual of Enumclaw
• Rainier View Construction & Roofing
• Puget Sound Energy

And to our Fireworks Sponsor ($2,000 level):

• Helac Corporation

Other hardworking Stars & Stripes committee members:

• Liz Reynolds, City of Enumclaw Mayor and Fireworks Chair
• Kelvin Schipper, Enumclaw Chamber of Commerce and Parade Chair
• Martha Boston, Enumclaw Courier Herald and Advertising Chair
• Joanne Treat, Treat’s Heating & Cooling and Committee Liason
• Tim Robeck from the Park Center Hotel, Sponsorship Chair
• Tracey Prociw of Rainier View Construction & Roofing, Treasurer

On behalf of the committee and the entire community, I would like to thank all of these people who have made this event possible.  See you on the 4th in Downtown Enumclaw!
