Fishers Freedom Festival - June 26 - 27, 2010
Information
We are best known for the annual Fishers Freedom Festival, which is always held the last full weekend in June, but I bet you weren’t aware of the other events, projects, and programs we provide for the residents in the Town of Fishers the rest of the year.
Community Service/Outreach Programs
- “Roy Holland Backpack for Kids” Program
This program provides less fortunate students within our school district the needed school supplies and backpacks that they otherwise would not be able to afford. - Fishers Police Department D.A.R.E.
The Fishers Parade and Festival, Inc. is the sponsoring organization for the annual Fishers Police Department D.A.R.E. Golf Outing in the fall. All of the profits are used for the Hamilton Southeastern School District’s D.A.R.E. Program. - Scholarships
The Festival Committee offers two separate scholarships - “Ken Wright” Community and Life Scholarship
Two high school seniors from the H.S.E. school district are selected annually to each receive $1000. This scholarship is based on community service, extra curricular activities, and participating in not-for-profit organizations. - “Roy Holland Memorial Scholarship”
This scholarship is for a full-time employee of the Town of Fishers, their spouse, or children. One scholarship is awarded annually to either a full-time student for $2,500 or a part-time student for $1,250.
