Last week, I joined colleagues and community members for the dedication and unveiling of the @america250_pa Semiquincentennial Bell at @campsecurity in @yorkcountypa. This historic site is one of the last undeveloped Revolutionary War prison camps in the United States.
America250PA is installing 67 commemorative replica bronze Liberty Bells across Pennsylvania to honor locations that reflect the resilience, unity and legacy of early Pennsylvanians. As we approach the nationโs 250th anniversary, the Camp Security bell is a powerful reminder of York Countyโs role in shaping our countryโs founding.

๐ This weekโs e-news is packed with important updates you need to know!

Congratulations to @teccentro_york and the Tec Centro Workforce Network on opening their newly renovated workforce development center at 800 E. Market Street, York.

The centerโs updated facilities and programs will play a key role in preparing the local workforce for todayโs job market and fostering long-term economic growth in the community.
