As someone who has grown up in Fishers, I personally have seen the city grow. I realize times have changed and that we are the same little town we once were. A lot of us don't have a say in what goes around the city but, this was the last straw. Our city has decided to END the beloved Fisher Freedom Festival, and I refuse to let them get away with this. The Freedom Festival is a tradition for most of us and we would like to share it with the future of the city. Younger families want to get the chance to share this event with their younger kids. It holds great memories in our hearts, and create new ones for so many. As a smaller city there isn't much to do around in the summer, except this. Everyone looks forward to this event. The festival bring so many benefits like volunteering for children and teens, it helps local businesses, and shares the skills of local artists. it brings people in from all over the state, it brings and great revenue, and smiles to so many faces. As well it also brings together the community to celebrate our great country. So if you would please take some time to sign our petition, share it with your friends, tag city officials, and help us save our traditions. Thank you so very much!
