Updates From the Centre County Historical Society

The Centre County Historical Society will receive an Award of Merit from the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums and Historical Organizations for last fall's Centre County and the Civil War exhibit.

Each year, PFMHO recognizes the special achievements of museums and historical organizations in Pennsylvania. Certificates are awarded to institutions for projects that have made an exemplary contribution to museums or the field of public history, exhibiting excellence and innovation.

Executive director Angela Breeden, president Jackie Melander, board member and Centre County Heritage editor Doug Macneal and graphic designer Dave Lembeck will be honored at a celebratory luncheon on October 28 at 12:30 p.m. at the Antique Automobile Museum in Hershey, PA. The luncheon will include a slideshow of highlighting the winning projects for all to see.
