Join us along with the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission this Saturday, April 17, for the George Croghan Marker.

A formal dedication ceremony will begin at 10 AM and is open to the public, media, and community to honor Croghan, an Irish immigrant and land speculator who launched one of the largest and most effective British trade networks in America beginning in the 1740s.

“We want to honor the legacy of a man who was so influential in the early development of our emerging nation,” says Dr. Stephen Gallaher, host for the Historical Marker and property owner.

We hope to see you for this historical celebration at 401 Skyport Road, Mechanicsburg, PA 17050. #PAProud #CentralPA #GeorgeCroghan #History
