The Spirit of Princeton.has hosted the annual fireworks since 1996, when the borough and the township’s inability to pay for the annual event sparked a major fundraiser that netted nearly $200,000. 

Now an endowment allows the non-profit organization to sponsor a number of annual events around town, including fireworks, the Memorial Day Parade, Veterans Day and Flag Day ceremonies.
