Phoenixville Seeks Cash Donations for Fireworks

Phoenixville is planning its annual Fourth of July fireworks display, but is still looking for cash donations to make the show possible.

A spokeswoman declined to specify how much money is still needed, but told Phoenixville Patch that the borugh is getting closer to its fundraising goal to pay for the display but that donors are still welcome and needed. The township depends on individual donations to pay the cost of filling the sky with colorful pyrotechnics.

Spokeswoman Karen John says donations can be sent in care of the Phoenixville Borough Manager Jean Krack at 140 Church Street, Phoenixville, PA, 19460.

Here are the details of the planned fireworks display on July 4:
