DELAWARE COUNTY (WPVI) — Delco is sharing its history in a special way to celebrate America’s 250th birthday. The county created a committee to help create special experiences that will take guests on a historical journey in one of the earliest building blocks of the country.
Highlights include the Brandywine Battlefield, The Lazaretto, Colonial Pennsylvania Farmstead, Newlin Grist Mill and Chester, Pennsylvania’s first city.
To kick off the semiquincentennial celebration the committee is hosting the ‘We the People Party’ at the Valley Forge Military College on January 9, 2026. The party will serve as an information session, a fundraiser for the year-long celebration and a chance to learn more about how to help as a volunteer.
