MLK LEBANON IS PROUD TO BE A SPONSOR OF THE SPRINGBORO'S JUNETEENTH JUBILEE

North Park,  Springboro, Ohio

Saturday June 18, 2022

 

The Springboro Juneteenth Jubilee is a family-friendly community celebration held on June 18, 2022, honoring the important day in our nation's history, June 19, 1865, when we all truly became free. On this day, the last slaves in Galveston, Texas were finally told of their freedom, nearly two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation had abolished slavery.

​

On this day, we celebrate our shared history, freedom, and continued commitment to equity and inclusion for all. The Springboro Juneteenth Jubilee takes place across multiple

unique venues in Springboro, Ohio and included live music and performances, a 3-on-3 basketball tournament, Underground Railroad tours, local food trucks, prizes, and more!




MLK Lebanon and Springboro Juneteenth Jubilee in partnership with the City of Lebanon, City of Springboro, Warren County Historical Society, and Springboro Historical Society present The Juneteenth Freedom Ride on Sat. June 18th. The 24-mile bike ride will begin at the Springboro Historical Society, travel south to Lebanon, enjoy a rest break and light refreshments at Harmon Museum, and then ride north back to Springboro.  


Proceeds to benefit the MLK Lebanon and PEACOC/Springboro Juneteenth Jubilee scholarship funds that are awarded to graduating high school seniors.
