Delaware County:
Where Pennsylvania Began

Join the Celebration uniting Delaware County
to promote our history, boost civic engagement, and
bring together special 250th anniversary festivities.

We are the local, nonpartisan initiative to engage all Delaware County residents in America's 250th anniversary by providing and supporting experiences, now through 2026, that ignite imaginations, elevate diverse stories, inspire service, and highlight the American founding and 250 years of American history through Delco’s unique lens.  

America’s 250th anniversary isn't just a party thrown for us, it's a party thrown by us!
