WAKEFIELD — Although the Fourth of July is a little over two weeks away, the West Side Social Club is still seeking donations to provide the day-long events.

If any household or business is able to send a donation to help defray the escalating costs needed to provide the morning Children’s Events, Concert on the Common, and the Spectacular Fireworks Display, it would be greatly appreciated.

The West Side has been bringing us a great Fourth of July celebration for decades, and the generosity of residents and business owners has always helped keep the tradition alive.

The Wakefield Municipal Light Department has once again allowed the WSSC to send a donation mailing envelope to each household.

If you do not have the mailing envelope and wish to send along a donation, please send your donation payable to WSSC 4th of July Committee and mail it to 4 Harrington Court Wakefield , MA 01880

The WSSC 4th of July Committee thanks everyone who has sent along their donation and are looking forward to  providing the perfect day in honor of our Nation’s Birthday.
