Westmorland History Committee
About the History Committee
The first meeting of the Westmorland History Committee was held on April 4, 2002. The first project for the committee was to survey the neighborhood to determine what history related projects residents were interested in. The results of the survey indicated that history articles for the Westmorland Courier, 4th of July celebration history displays, neighborhood walking tours, collection and archiving of Westmorland history, and developing history books and brochures related to Westmorland were of the most interest to the neighborhood. The first Westmorland history article was published in the November 2003 of the Courier. As of March, 2015, history articles have been published in 60 consecutive issues of the Courier. Since 2005, the history committee has set up a history display table at the Westmorland 4th of July event. The committee published a Westmorland walking tour booklet in September, 2012. The history committee has been archiving neighborhood history related materials since 2003.
