Summer Thunder® 2022 – “Diamonds in The Sky”!

Tipton, Pennsylvania – The DelGrosso Family of Companies is gearing up for a summertime tradition like no other – Summer Thunder® 2022. This year’s annual fireworks extravaganza is themed as Diamonds in The Sky – A 75th Diamond Anniversary Salute to DelGrosso’s Park & DelGrosso Foods!

“Each year, we like to pick a theme for our show. This year’s theme will honor and salute the hard work, dedication, and vision of our parents Fred and Murf…and the continuation of their dreams by three generations of DelGrosso’s to reach this milestone,” says Joe DelGrosso, Summer Thunder® Coordinator and President of DelGrosso Foods, Inc.

The soundtrack will still include patriotic favorites, but you will also hear modern-day tunes and some anniversary songs. Summer Thunder® is set to a musical soundtrack that is developed by Dave Villani of Data Music Services in Altoona.

The fireworks are designed by Arthur Rozzi Pyrotechnics from Maineville, OH. Members of the Rozzi Family have been designing firework shows for DelGrosso’s Park for more than 50 years. Over 2,500 shells will light up the night sky in Tipton during the 25-minute pyro-musical spectacular.
