How to join
Every January or February, the Lone Rock residents and businesses are invited to come out to a kickoff meeting to help plan for the year's event. Neighboring communities and businesses are also invited to join in, as well. The committee has regular meetings every 2-3 weeks and usually wraps up about mid-July. They are responsible for financing and executing the entire event from beginning to end.
The event committee is not-for-profit
Money raised from the 4th of July Celebration is used to fund two things: 1) the event itself, especially the fireworks and 2) special projects and initiatives that benefit the community at large. Some examples of this include the major remodeling for the concession stand a few years ago, and new crock pots to replace old ones in the concession stand. Since then, a Community Building sign was erected, and contributions were made toward local initiatives that support our residents and local organizations. In 2026, the committee is looking at purchasing a new PA system for the village to replace the old one.
