Edwards Athletics

This week's Hype the Hard-Working Duck goes to Karsyn! Karsyn consistently demonstrates what it means to work hard with a positive attitude. Through every challenging practice, she perseveres without giving up, always giving their best effort and encouraging those around them. She welcomes corrections with a smile, using feedback as an opportunity to improve rather than a setback. Her dedication, resilience, coachability, and upbeat attitude make them an outstanding example of what this award represents. Congratulations on earning this well-deserved recognition Karsyn.

The magic is real ✨

We were honored to partner with American Legion Post 254 to help sponsor activities for the Johnstown Fireworks.

Thank you Post 254 for including us, and thank you Johnstown for showing up and celebrating with us! We love giving back to the community that supports our athletes all year 💜

The Johnstown OH - Fireworks Team would like to take a moment to thank the 2026 Johnstown Fireworks GOLD Sponsors!

These GOLD Sponsors are the teams that bring the activities and excitement to the Johnstown Fireworks Event!

The Fireworks Team saw the excitement that the Downtown Johnstown Inc Dunk Tank brought to the Fireworks event and, in 2025, found community sponsors that were excited to be a part of an event that brought fun, for all ages, to the Johnstown, Monroe and surrounding communities' families.

Through their generosity, we have been able to provide activities like the Fishing Pond, Photo Booth with Emeraldrosephotoco, Duck Pond, Westfall Mini Farm Highland Cows, and Pilar Designs Face Painting. In addition, these sponsors have supported our event and community through helpful services at the Fireworks like assistance with line management for the activities, Lost and Found as well as an Info Booth.

Our 2-Year GOLD Sponsors:
Mortellaro.Mcdonalds Family of Restaurants
Edwards Athletics
Johnstown Community Sportsmen's Club
Professional VisionCare
Troyers Marketplace
The Hot Spot Coffeehouse
SERVPRO of Northeast Columbus
Promero Consulting

And joining 2026's celebration are:
