2026 West Windsor Community Day USA 250th Celebration!

Years from now, on America's 275th or 300th birthday, your grandkids are going to ask your kids what their hometown did for America's big 250th Birthday in 2026.

If you live in West Windsor, they will talk about meeting Alexander Hamilton, taking part in a human chain writing "250" while drones take photos from above, and watching their Mayor and Town Council reaffirming the Declaration of Independence. Maybe they'll remember the old time games or the story tellers.

Yes, of course there will be free rides also. Such are memories made for all of us.
