Time to put our money where our mouth is! Based on a statement by the Bristol Police Chief we are raising the funds needed to hold this event safely. In the January 30, 2025 Bristol Phoenix: "According to Lynch's (Police Chief) written statement, he would seek an additional $17k-$19k in the FY26 budget to address the public safety concerns of hosting the series at Independence Park".

Together as a community we can raise the $17k! We will then present this petition and the funds at the next Bristol 4th of July Committee. If they agree to move the concerts back to Independence Park as a result of the donations, these funds will be donated directly to the Bristol Fourth of July Committee. IF WE DO NOT GET A COMMITMENT FROM THE COMMITTEE TO RETURN THE VENUE TO INDEPENDENCE PARK, ALL DONATIONS WILL BE REFUNDED.

Thank you to Portside Tavern, Judge Roy Bean Saloon, The Beehive Cafe, and Jules Ice Cream for donating and getting us started!
