Reminder: Next sesquicentennial planning meeting

This summer Manchester will be celebrating its 150th birthday beginning on Wednesday, August 2nd and running through Sunday August 6th. This 5-day long birthday party will be made up of many separate activities and events and will require lots of help to make happen.

Here is a document of what events are being planned at the moment, but that doesn't mean it's too late for you to plan another: Manchester Sesquicentennial Celebration August 2017- Promotion Brochure
