Community Events
Originally created to celebrate Independence Day, PUSH Beaver County founded and created Beaver County BOOM!, a fireworks festival to attract people to visit our river communities. Also, a portion of the revenue received will be earmarked for educational scholarships and local charities. Beaver County BOOM! is a free event. The event is made possible from public and private funding.
In 2019, our organization was asked to host the Beaver County Maple Syrup Festival by community leaders. The event was originally hosted by the Beaver County Conservation District. The COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 and further large crowd gathering restrictions lasting through 2022, impacted our ability to bring the festival online. Finally, in 2023 we able to bring back the festival. The festival was renamed to the Beaver County Maple Syrup & Music Festival in 2024.
Network
A by-product of PUSH Beaver County’s philanthropic, community, and wellness events is networking and socialization, which encourages Beaver County residents to remain active in our community.
