What Brockway Old Fashioned 4th of July Inc does
Mission
The purpose of the Brockway Old Fashioned Fourth of July Celebration is to provide our community, surrounding area and Western Pennsylvania with an old-fashioned Independence Day celebration.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
All activities associated with the Old Fashioned Fourth of July Celebration are free to the public and consist of games, patriotic programs, and various entertainment and cultural events that lend themselves to all ages. The celebration is capped off with a parade, followed by a gigantic fireworks display considered to be the best around.All events are donated, sponsored or paid for by community and area organizations, businesses and individuals. Additional revenues necessary to provide a celebration of this magnitude are obtained through fund raisers throughout the year, and a collection taken along the parade route during the time of the parade.Non-profit organizations, upon the approval of the Executive Committee, are permitted to sell refreshments in the Park during the celebration. These non-profit organizations traditionally include Scouts, civic groups, churches, athletic booster clubs, ambulance services and police organizations. Sidewalk sales are not permitted in the Park and are carried out outside of the auspices of the Old Fashioned Fourth of July Celebration.We believe that the events provided create community pride, cooperation and participation.

The program described on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $97,885.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $63k to $29k (−54%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
