Winston’s Fourth of July Fireworks Are Officially Back On

WINSTON–DILLARD, Ore. - After weeks of uncertainty and a strong community push, the fireworks are officially a go! Thanks to the hard work and determination of the Winston Area Independence Day (WAID) Association, the skies over Winston and Dillard will once again light up this July 4th in celebration of freedom, family, and community.

The long-standing tradition- now celebrating its 5th year with WAID - was at risk of cancellation due to funding challenges. But with support from local fundraising, business donations, and dedicated volunteers, the show is back on.


🎆 What to Expect

This year’s celebration includes more than just fireworks:

  • Vendors & Food Trucks
  • Parade
  • Kids Activities
  • Live Music
  • Games, Food, and Family Fun

📍 Next Community Meeting

Residents, volunteers, and anyone interested in helping are encouraged to attend the next WAID meeting:

Thursday, June 5th at 6:00 PM
Location: Riverbend Park in Winston

The meeting will include updates, planning info, and ways to get involved. Everyone is welcome.


While the fireworks are confirmed, more funding is still needed to support the full range of activities and keep this annual tradition alive in future years. Donations of any amount are still appreciated.

This isn’t just about a fireworks show - it’s about keeping something special going for the entire Winston-Dillard community and beyond.

Let’s make the 5th year one to be proud of.
