THE ASTORIA BICENTENNIAL CELEBRATION

Did you know that:

Astoria, Oregon was established in 1811 by the John Jacob Astor fur trading party, and became the first permanent U.S. settlement west of the Rocky Mountains.  

City leaders began planning for a huge 200th. birthday celebration as early as 2008.  Committees have been actively planning for the event, which will include many educational & community-wide events of interest to the entire family.  A permanent exhibit at the Heritage Museum will enlighten us on the founding of Astoria, John Jacob Astor & the race for the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

Like many historical venues, this celebration will include lectures, presentations & a full schedule of activities.  For more information please defer to the birthday party celebration website.  I'm sure that you'll want to book mark this wonderful site.  We're hoping that you'll join us in celebrating this most historic event.  Another site worthy of review would be the Astoria-Warrenton Chamber of Commerce website.

For all things Astoria, be sure to check out the City of Astoria website as well.
