West Union, WV  -  CELEBRATION TIME – COME ALONG ---

We are planning a party… A Birthday Party…. Not just any party, but a birthday party for our Town of West Union. A celebration of deep history. That’s right; on July 22, 2006 our Town is celebrating the first 125 years!!!

Plans have begun, but each of you are a part of our town’s history – each of you have stories to tell, history to relive and a dream for our future… So we are asking for your help. We need churches, businesses, and organizations to write about themselves. Tell us your history, how you got started, where you came from, and where you are today. West Union and the people who live here are full of deep wonderful history, and we want you to share that with us.

These articles will be put in a scrapbook and kept by the Doddridge County Historical Society. Articles can be sent to the Town of West Union, PO Box 5, 300 Court Street, West Union, WV 26456.

In order to be included, please turn in your information by Monday, April 3rd, 2006.

Did you know that our Town has a Newsletter? It’s on the web and FREE to anyone with an email address. Contact fran.stewart@gmail.com

If your business or organization has a website and would like to be linked through the Town of West Union website,
http://www.westunion-wv.com , contact the above email address also. This would be a great advertisement for your business and/or organization.

We would also like to develop a directory for the Town. To be part of this, just send us the name of your organization, address, email, website, and contact person’s name and title.

As you can see, there is a lot to do, and I just covered a few of the things, but we need your help. If you have any ideas or can offer any help, please feel free to call Fran at City Hall: 873-1400 or email at the above address.

Also look for future articles in the West Union Herald for information on the celebration.

Help us celebrate our rich history and help us make history for the NEXT 125 years!!!
