The July 4th Celebration is a major fund raiser for both Lions and Kiwanis clubs. All of the monies raised are used to provide services and programs to those in need throughout our communities. Some of those Community Service projects and programs include the following: the Lions Club invests over $120,000 in yearly funding to vital parts of our community such as, both the Elk Lake and Montrose Schools 6th grade classes for a class trip to Hershey Park, Susquehanna County Interfaith’s Christmas Program to provide toys and clothing for families in need, and to Interfaith for construction and improvements to their new Thrift Store in Montrose. The Kiwanis Club invests over $100,000 in funding for the United Fire Company, the Susquehanna County Library and the Summer Lunch Program.
