Ep. 25: America 250: “People just say semiquin”
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Be sure to mark "semiquin" on your 2026 calendars, because it’s the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence. America250, along with local chapters, is and has been dedicated to ensuring this year is celebrated properly.
In this episode, Commissioner Bob Harvie, who leads the Bucks250PA Commission, discusses the group's efforts and how their goal is to stamp this county with a legacy that will interest residents and visitors beyond the semiquincentennial. And for Bucks County, the celebrations won’t stop on the 4th of July. It goes all the way to Christmas Day at Washington Crossing Park. Jennifer Martin, Executive Director of the Friends of Washington Crossing and John Godzieba, Board President of the Friends of Washington Crossing, talk about the park’s historical significance in the 1776 fight for freedom…and how John gets to replay that pivotal moment each year in the shoes of General George Washington.
