Duneland’s upcoming fireworks show at the Indiana Dunes State Park is getting a boost of support from the county.

North Porter County Commissioner John Evans on Tuesday proposed using $5,000 out of his district’s share of the County Economic Development Income Tax toward the fireworks show.

Commissioners Robert Harper and Carole Knoblock agreed with the request.

The fireworks show is being organized by the town of Porter, which has asked for assistance from other towns, businesses, and community groups toward the estimated $30,000 price tag.

Chesterton and Burns Harbor are among those chipping in, by contributing $5,000 and $1,000 respectively.

The show is set for July 1.
