SUMMER CONCERT SERIES
The township wraps up its summer concert series this month with one final show at Peterswood Park. The show begins at 7 p.m.:
August 17: Joe Grushecky, the man whom CNN recently called “Rock’s Best Kept Secret” brings his Houserockers and their brand of old-fashioned rock ‘n’ roll to Peters Township to close the concert season. A friend of Bruce Springsteen, Grushecky organized the flood-relief concert that had the Boss playing Heinz Hall last year. Now he’s promoting his new CD “True Companion.”

LIBRARY ORAL HISTORY DISPLAY
As part of an oral history project to record and preserve the history of the township through personal interviews with past and present residents, the library is currently offering two
displays about life in Peters Township. Pictures on display include various facets of the history of the township including farm life, education, transportation, government, recreation, churches and industry. These displays are located on both the first and second floors of the Peters Township Library, to see how life in the township has evolved over time.
