The 137th Colton Birthday Celebration lit up the night on July 13, 2024, with a spectacular evening that brought the community together for a memorable event. Held at the Colton High School Stadium on Rancho Avenue, the free celebration ran from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., drawing families and friends from across the area.

 

Attendees were treated to a lively performance by the Let's Dance Band, whose energetic tunes had everyone on their feet. Alongside the music, a variety of delicious food vendors offered a mouth-watering selection of treats, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy.

 

The highlight of the evening was the breathtaking fireworks show, which illuminated the sky and left the crowd in awe. The vibrant display served as a fitting tribute to Colton’s rich history and bright future.

 

The event was made possible through the generous support of sponsors, with contributions ranging from $100 to $5000. Special thanks to our Gold Sponsors, US Auctions, Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, Cutting Edge Supply, Union Pacific and La Quinta Inn and Suites. Thank you to everyone who came out to support the 137th Colton Birthday Celebration.
