What a fantastic event this morning at the Upper Dublin Public Library! 🇺🇸 As part of Montgomery County Pennsylvania Houses of Declaration program, we participated in a public reading of the Declaration of Independence. There was a great turnout by community members to celebrate 250 years of the Declaration! Our own Historical Society of Fort Washington President Matt Brasch represented as one of the readers, and many visitors came to our info table and learned more about the Society from Marianne Matt and Jim Adams! Thanks to the UDPL for including us and happy Fourth of July!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🎉
