Summary


Passport to Powell – Cultural Diversity was an event held August 18 at City Hall and Powell Park. The Society was invited by the Chamber of Commerce to participate in this evening of ethnicity and cultural diversity. We were offered the entire East Room of the City Hall building which we filled with tables of artifacts and pictures of Liberty Townships’ past. Those who visited not only viewed the posters and artifacts but were able to watch several scrolling educational videos. You, too, can view these videos on the Society website, powellhistory.org. The Society appreciates opportunities to educate the growing population of Powell and Liberty Township about the history of the place they now call home.
