District 17 is fortunate to have dedicated local historians like Dr. David Young, Executive Director of the Historical Society, safeguarding documents and items that remind us of where our nation has been – and just how much work remains to build a country that truly serves We The People. Take a look at the Historical Society’s space in Norristown during this month’s Spotlight in the 17th, and be sure to connect with the Society and support the essential work they do!
