The Elkton Fire Department wants to extend our gratitude and appreciation our community for coming out last evening to enjoy our annual fireworks show. We hope the show was worth attending and watching.

We want to recognize all of those individuals and businesses that provide the financial support that allows us to continue to put the show on every year.

Thank you to the Bankstar ladies who faithfully order our fireworks every year.

Happy 250th America!!
