With costs such as the required insurance policy, advertising, brochures, and parade bands, among other things, the festival committee relies heavily on support from local merchants, civic groups, organizations, and citizens. Fortunately, the committee was able to secure sponsorship of its fireworks display for a second consecutive year from Duty Free Americas, Hardwicke’s. Thousands flocked to the riverfronts on both sides of the St. Croix to watch the spectacular display which concluded the festival Sunday night. Giard reminds readers that events like International Homecoming Festival it created, coordinated, and run strictly by volunteers. That committee, Giard reported, plans all year for the annual August event. “It takes a lot of hard work and numerous volunteers to bring this Festival together. We are already planning for next year and will be looking for new volunteers to help make it even better. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for announcements about how you can get involved.”
