Downtown Rock Springs Launches "Christmas in July" Fundraising Campaign to Light Up Bunning Park

Last Updated 6/26/2024


The Rock Springs Main Street/Urban Renewal Agency (URA) is excited to announce the launch of our "Christmas in July" fundraising campaign, aiming to raise $15,000 to help illuminate Bunning Park during the holiday season. With $35,000 already budgeted by the City of Rock Springs, this additional funding will bring us closer to transforming Bunning Park into a winter wonderland that will be the centerpiece of holiday celebrations in Rock Springs and beyond.

Each year, we plan to add more lights, attractions, and activities, turning Bunning Park into a hub of holiday cheer. Our goal is to create a magical experience that brings joy to our community and attracts visitors from the region.

"We are thrilled to kick off this fundraising campaign and bring a touch of holiday magic to our community," said Maria Mortensen, URA board chairwoman. "With the generous support of our residents and local businesses, we can make Bunning Park a wonderful holiday spot for everyone to enjoy."

How to Contribute:
Community members and businesses are invited to support this initiative by MAKING A DONATION HERE. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us light up Bunning Park and create a holiday experience that will be remembered for years to come.

Share the Joy:
We encourage everyone to spread the word about our campaign. Invite your friends and family to contribute and be part of this project. Together, we can create a holiday experience that generations will enjoy.
