About Us

Hi there,
My name is John Becker and I want to thank you for visiting our website! Bonners Ferry’s 4th of July celebration is presented by two entities. Forerunner Inc, our sponsor is a 501c3 organization that does all of our fundraising and event organization. Forerunner Enterprises is contracted (on a volunteer basis as well) to shoot our display as they carry all of the appropriate licensing. Together, these two groups put together the best event of the summer!

Our 2025 Volunteers
