The Tri-County Heritage Society will host a World War II program on Tuesday, October 23 at the Caernarvon (Berks) Municipal Building, Rt. 23, Morgantown, beginning at 7:00 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.

Historian, Jere Brady, of Main St., Morgantown shared the following:

“Our society was founded in 1970, Morgantown’s Bicentennial Year. That year they named me town historian and our group promoted the Bicentennial with various events. Eventually we published a book that earned us $3,000.With that money people suggested we start a historical society, I agreed to remain as historian if all the other officers and volunteers would stay. The organization’s name was expanded to include an area greater than Morgantown.”
