The Borough would like to take this time to point out that the World War I Monument located in front of Borough Hall, across the street from the VFW, was just recently restored in conjunction with the Old York Road Historical Society for the 100 year anniversary of the monument. Please feel free to walk over to view the refinished monument where it will proudly stand the test of time for another 100 years.
