"There are some facts that you might not know about New Wilmington," said Al Sternbergh, a member of the book committee. "How did the town get its name? There is some evidence related to the early settlement of our town that it was named after Wilmington, Delaware. New Wilmington is the only town in the United States with this name."
"Most of the earliest settlers came here to claim their Donation Land awarded them by the colonial government for services rendered during the Revolutionary War," continued Sternbergh. "We are certain that those who purchase this first complete history of New Wilmington will find it a good 'reading companion' and bring forth a treasure trove of lasting memories."
Books may be purchased at the Westminster College Book Store located in the McKelvey Campus Center beginning Monday, Sept. 27.

The Westminster College Celebrity Series is bringing "Clifford the Big Red Dog Live" to campus Tuesday, March 21, at 1 and 6:30 p.m. in Orr Auditorium.
"Seeing the magic of live theater come alive in the eyes of a child is priceless," said Connie McGinnis, assistant director of Celebrity Series at Westminster College. "Children are so uninhibited and unpretentious when they attend a performance. They clap; they laugh; they dance in the aisles. Theater is real to them and there is nothing more entertaining for a family to do together than attend a show. The kids won't take their eyes off the stage and the parents won't be able to take their eyes off the joy on their children's faces. It's truly a feel good experience for all."
This show presents the well-loved characters from Birdwell Island including Emily Elizabeth, Cleo, T-Bone, Jetta, Charlie, and, of course, Clifford in an energetic spectacle for the whole family. With memorable songs, dancing and the characters kids love, Clifford fans will love this show that celebrates the timeless values of teamwork and friendship.
Westminster's Orr Auditorium was recently remodeled to include air conditioning, stage elevator, new carpeting, and re-upholstered seats, along with stage lighting and shell improvements.
