A look back at 100 years: FOBB annual meeting and potluck

On Tuesday, September 9, gather with “Friends” to share a traditional potluck dinner and look back at the history of the Abington area. Members of the Old York Road Historical Society will provide photos, stories and more. Learn about Quaker couple, Everett and Florence Griscom, who moved to Abington in 1908 and shared their knowledge and love of nature with children and adults for over 50 years. See what Abington looked like when Willow Grove was a park with trees instead of a shopping mall. Following the presentation, you may choose to stay for the Annual Meeting of the Friends of Briar Bush and election of new board members. Please RSVP by August 26. Potluck begins at 5:30 p.m. at Briar Bush. The cost is $5/adult and $3/child under 10 – please bring a dish that serves 10 people. In order to accurately plan for the evening, please contact us to determine what type of dish to bring.
