PITTSTON TWP. \u2014 This year, in honor of celebrating the nation\u2019s 250th birthday, township Supervisor Joe Hawk proposed updating the official seal of the township, including the correct colors of the township.<\/p>\n
Kyle Rozitski, Pittston Twp. financial administrator, said the previous seal\u2019s colors were not correct, and it was outdated, showing the township\u2019s bicentennial dates of 1790-1990.<\/p>\n
The slogan of \u201cProgress Pride Prosperity\u201d will remain on the new seal as well, correcting the official township colors to maroon and gold.<\/p>\n
The new seal was announced and adopted at the March 16th Board of Supervisors\u2019 meeting.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs our community continues to grow and thrive, the board felt it was time for a visual identity that honors our rich history,\u201d Rozitski said. \u201cThe new design proudly features our traditional township colors of maroon and gold, symbolizing the strength and excellence of our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rozitski added that the new seal would begin to appear on all official vehicles, letterhead, stationery, and merchandise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWithin the next month or so, we will be selling t-shirts and hoodies with the new seal on them,\u201d Rozitski added. \u201cWe are also creating lapel pins with the American flag and the township seal interlocked on it. That idea was again credited to Supervisor Hawk to honor the 250th birthday of our nation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Look towards the township\u2019s Facebook page for further news on where to purchase official Pittston Twp. clothing.<\/p>\n
Rozitski said the new seal design was created entirely by artificial intelligence (AI) at no cost to taxpayers.<\/p>\n
