Join us for the 2026 SummerFest and Employee Appreciation Day as we commemorate our nation’s 250th anniversary! This year’s installation event celebrates the signing of the Declaration of Independence—providing a special opportunity to reflect on our past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and envision our future together.

For the first time in history, a fireworks display will be launched from the DLA Susquehanna installation.
