New Wilmington History Book Prepaid Orders Now Available

Prepaid orders for The History of New Wilmington book can be picked up Tuesday-Thursday, Sept. 21-23, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at the New Wilmington Borough Building.
 
 "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.


Westminster College Business Administration Major Received Scholarship

Benjamin Nelson, a senior business administration and history major at Westminster College, recently received the Edward Trust Entrepreneurship Scholarship.

"This is a new scholarship that the Department of Economics and Business Department created out of the endowed funds contributed several years ago by the David Edward Trust," said Tom Rosengarth, chair of the department and associate professor of accounting.  "We hope to make this an annual event."

To qualify for this scholarship, students must submit a written business plan and present an oral presentation before a panel of judges.  This year's judges included Richard Bralich, a 1979 Westminster College graduate and principal of the Bralich Advisory Group, and Ken Romig, a 1984 Westminster graduate and vice president for finance and management services at Westminster College.

Nelson is a son of Thomas and Kathie Nelson, Poland, Ohio, and a graduate of Poland Seminary High School.

For more information, contact Rosengarth at (724) 946-7169 or e-mail rosengte@westminster.edu.
