Did you know that September is Delaware County History Month?
More importantly, did you know that on Sunday there is a huge event at Rose Tree Park to celebrate Delaware County's rich legacy.
All month long, Delaware County has been holding a series of events spotlighting county history. On Sunday they will add the crowning touch with a huge celebration.
We're going to offer a preview of what will be available tonight on our 'Live From the Newsroom' live-stream broadcast. You can tune in at 7 p.m. on DelcoTimes.com. If you have a question about Delco history you'd like to see our panel address, email it to me at editor@delcotimes.com.
I'll be joined by Linda Houldin, the executive director of the Delaware County Historical Society; Beverlee Barnes, head historic preservationist of the Delaware County Planning Department; Bill Henderson, of the Tri-State Hogg Club, which is planning a special motorcycle 'Ride to History' on Sunday morning to kick off the day; and local historian Keith Lockhart, owner of one of the largest collections of historical photos in the county.
The 'Ride For History' for cars and motorcycles will start at 9 a.m. Sunday at Hannum's Harley Davidson, 1241 Baltimore Pike out in Chadds Ford, and end in Rose Tree Park. Participants will tour historic sites in the county.
The celebration will run noon to 5 p.m. in Rose Tree Park, featuring antique cars and motorcycles, a children's fun area, a diverse collection of food vendors, and art shows and events all tied into Delco history.
Join us tonight at 7 for a 'history-making' 'Live From the Newsroom.'
