Sponsors still needed for "Merrimack Rocks"

As we approach September we are in the final planning stages of "Merrimack Rocks". We thank all the sponsors who have come forward to help finance and support this worthwhile event. We have been blessed with alot of generosity from both our presenting sponsor ESPN New Hamphire---The Monahan Companies and Silver sponsors such as All Basics Stove Shop, The DW Diner and Bellavance Beverage, but we are still short of our goal to ensure a first rate fireworks show, entertainment  and to have the proper advertising for such an event as well as the awards, incidentals, porta potties, shuttle buses etc....

Make no mistake we are well on our way, but we hope some other businesses  step up if they feel this is a worthwhile cause. 

Anyone interested in being a sponsor can e mail dmccray7@aol.com
