Additionally, neighborhoods can check out a "Party in the Box" which includes fun and engaging activities for both youth and adults to help make every celebration a success.

To be eligible for the $250 raffle, neighborhoods must submit their America250: Neighborhood Celebration pledge at least two weeks before their planned gathering and successfully complete the event.

The America250: Neighborhood Celebration aims to strengthen neighborhood connections, foster community pride, and create lasting memories while honoring America's 250th anniversary through local engagement and service.
