Winslow Township is made up of many villages, some large, some small. Among the smallest is Penbryn. Although mostly known today for the lake bearing the village’s name or the Johns Manville Plant, few realize that this tiny remaining part of a failed early twentieth century subdivision was the home of a world famous Champion Woodchopper, the mother of a currently very popular TV personality, and Winslow Township’s very own Mayor Barry Wright.
Visit with the Historical Society of Winslow Township as Mayor Wright tells us about the early and later industries of Penbryn, some of the people who have lived there and what it was like to grow up in one of Winslow’s smallest villages. Presentation will begin after our 7:00 PM regular business meeting. Free Admission with light refreshments provided.
