Historical foundation posts annual meeting

Lititz Historical Foundation will hold its annual meeting on Saturday, Nov. 9, at 1:30 p.m. at the Lititz Public Library, 651 Kissel Hill Road. After a brief meeting, local historian Benton Webber will discuss the 200th anniversary re-enactment tour of Marquis de Lafayette.

While only a teenager, the French aristocrat left his home in France and traveled to the newly formed United States of America to help the country win the Revolutionary War. A half century later, he was invited to return as a celebrated guest of the nation and traveled across the United States for 13 months.

In July of 2025, the 200th anniversary re-enactment tour will follow Lafayette's footsteps in Lancaster. Webber will describe these events, both actual and planned. Attendees will be able to register for the events.

The meeting and program are open to the public. To make reservations, call the Lititz Public Library at 717-626-2255.
