For over twenty years, The Fund
has been sponsoring Fourth of July fireworks,
currently held on the grounds of Radnor High
School. This event is consistently the largest
fund-raising activity for The Fund and requires
upwards of 150 people to make it a success.
In addition to the breath-taking
display of pyrotechnics, the event offers a
wide assortment of refreshments, live entertainment
and a large array of games for children. Surrounding
businesses allow The Fund to use their parking
lots to accommodate the large crowds which attend
the fireworks.
The fireworks are not a Radnor
Township-sponsored activity and The Fund receives
no money from pubic sources to support the event.
Both the Radnor School District and Radnor Police
are reimbursed for their assistance. All the
workers at the fireworks, as at all Fund events,
are unpaid community volunteers.
Local businesses donate both
money and goods to the fireworks; volunteers
can be recognized by their colorful “T-Shirts”
which are part of our fund-raising program.
Tickets for the event can be
purchased both at the site and before hand (at
a discount) at various Radnor Township businesses.
Most attendees arrive by car; parking including
admission to the High School grounds is $15
per carload ($10 in advance), $10 for less than
a carload and $5 for car and driver alone. Tickets
are also available for those who choose to walk
to the fireworks.
Tickets can be purchased in advance
of July 4th at Commerce Bank (Wayne Office),
D’Amicantonio Shoes, High Road Cycles,
Dayton Locks, Braxton’s Animal Works,
Wayne Sporting Goods and the Radnor Township
Building. Tickets are $10 per carload- a saving
of $5 for car and occupants. Individual tickets
for adults and children are also available for
$4 and $3 respectively.
