Brownsville Independence Day Committee Announces 2019 Theme:
"Stepping Up and Pitching In"
Brownsville Independence Day Celebrations
PO Box 37

July 3rd and 4th, 2019
The Brownsville Independence Day Committee is proud to announce this year's parade and events theme: "Stepping Up and Pitching In". What does this mean? The Brownsville Independence Day Committee points out that the IDC celebrations and the many, many other area events and organizations would not take place or exist without the generous donations of time and resources of all the volunteers involved. Therefore, this year, we are celebrating all the people who "Step Up and Pitch In"!
The scope is broad and there are many examples but just to name a few …
• The West Windsor Volunteer Fire Department and the Reading/West Windsor Food Shelf provide safety and peace of mind.
• Ascutney Outdoors and STAB (Sport Trails in the Ascutney Basin) make it possible for us to enjoy our local natural resources year-round.
• The Vermont 50, the Vermont 100 and VASS (Vermont Adaptive Ski & Sports) provide opportunities for us to challenge ourselves while bringing the impossible within reach for others.
• SCIP (School & Community in Partnership) and Brownsville Community Church Outreach Programs help us to connect and support each other.
• Brownsville Holiday Happenings (a collaborative effort) and the Independence Day Committee provide seasonal celebrations for the community's enjoyment.
The Brownsville Independence Day Celebration Committee has evolved. It has grown and is manned by representatives from many organizations and groups and is a committee willing to recruit and lead.
Please be sure to watch for some exciting new features, changes in fireworks location and parking procedures, all coming out soon.
