"Let us not use this summer and this day only as a remembrance of how things use to be. But let us use it as a springboard to grow and to show that local communities, local government, local involvement and local pride are not dead."

Hundreds enjoyed the various 2010 Centennial summer events which started with the Memorial Day Parade. The Mt Wolf banners and souvenir sales exceeded all expectations. More than 1,500 people enjoyed the temporary Mount Wolf museum, which had to be kept open for two extra weeks due to the large interest. More than 500 attended the August 21 celebration day activities. The last centennial event was on October 24 at the Mt Wolf Eagle fire hall. There the videos on Mount Wolf history were shown and the just released "Mount Wolf History, The Centennial Edition" book was handed out.
Thank you all for making Mount Wolf's Borough birthday a great celebration.
