About Us
Items AvailableWelcome
In 2011, Millersville celebrates its 250th anniversary of its founding by John Miller. For two years, a committee has been planning a year-long celebration that includes several events, an historical exhibit, a publication and sales items for Millersville 250.
We celebrate the history, the people, the stories and the bright future of our unique community. Residents of Millersville are being encouraged to engage in their historical fabric which makes Millersville such a special place—a community of neighbors.
This year-long celebration will take place with the help and participation of our historical society, churches, civic organizations, businesses, schools and residents.
Let’s get the party started—Celebrate Millersville 250!
