Downingtown 150


Downingtown, PA is Turning 150


I saw the sign on Pennsylvania Avenue near the gazebo, "Volunteers needed for Downingtown's Sesquicentennial Celebration. Call 610-269-0344." I'd seen it for a couple of days, and finally decided this was something I needed to be involved in.


I was born in West Chester, PA and lived in Downingtown until I was eight years old. Downingtown held many memories for me- and after living around the world (Air Force brat) - it was the only real place to call "home".What a great opportunity to give back to the community !


It has been fun to be a part of the planning - to come together with other people who care about the town and want to make the celebration event a hit with the community. The memories of the town have been so fun to learn - and I don't consider myself a real history buff.


If you'd like more information about the events including a parade and celebration day in May & a market day in October - you can visit the site I'm working on at Downingtown 150.

I am very excited as Downingtown and Brisbane (where my Australian office is located) are both celebrating their 150th anniversaries this year. You can read more about Downingtown's history and Brisbane's "green" approach in my blog. See http://www.waratahcommunications.com/Itineravoy_Blog.php
