Celebrating America’s Treasures!
Did you ever run your hand across a hundred-year old banister and wonder the stories of the many folks who once climbed that same stairway? Some of the greatest treasures in the community are found in the craftsmanship and architecture of the homes and buildings of Collingswood – discovering and preserving the past helps to celebrate the stories of our shared American experience.
This year, Proud Neighbors of Collingswood is “Celebrating America’s Treasures” as we join thousands across the country in observation of National Preservation Month, sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Our annual Porch Brunch with House and Garden Tour is an ideal way to celebrate the treasures of Collingswood!
