Presented by the Jefferson Educational Society - Positively Corry 2026. Speaker: Jeffrey Fike.

There are numerous projects in Corry, Pennsylvania, inching there way closer on the horizon that are now closer to reality than they've ever been. From the new wastewater treatment plant to a decades-overdue emergency service facility that has been discussed for a very long time. There's also the resurrection of a section of the Greenway Junction Trail, the Corry / Lawrence Airport transfer is near completion, as well as the new Comprehensive Plan and the new zoning ordinance with updated code compliance ordinance to move toward completion soon after. And Corry City and Corry Police have begun a new partnership with Corry Memorial Hospital, providing an additional police officer to the city at no cost.

There's been some good timing, too, as Corry received word early this year that First Energy would be replacing every streetlight in the city with LED lights at no cost, providing a huge savings for the city for the cost of the lights, and future utility costs. Too, PennDOT is beginning work to resurface Center Street, Main Street, and West Washington Street – a project that had been delayed for a few years.

Come learn about the progress made and plans in place from Corry Mayor Jeffrey Fike.

Presented by the Jefferson Educational Society - Revisiting the 1976 American Bicentennial: 'It Was A Really Big Deal!'. Speaker: Richard Arthur, M.A.

As the United States of America approaches its 250th year of liberty and independence, we have the opportunity to look back on many events, large and small, that made us who we are. One landmark in particular deserves a look this year: The American Bicentennial, an event that spanned several years of the early 1970s, occurring just as we were recovering from the national shocks of Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal. Americans were suffering from runaway inflation, and in the northwestern Pennsylvania region, the early collapse of the industries that were the backbone of our economy were becoming more evident. Yet, the Bicentennial served as a salve. It provided events that promoted unity and patriotism. It educated and entertained. It was a time of reflection, celebration and joy. It was everywhere in our lives in a way almost unimaginable today – and deserves our looking back at it.

This event is part of the JES's USA 250 Event Series. JES Satellite Programming is sponsored by Erie Insurance.

The program will be held on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, from 6p-7:30p at the Corry Hi-Ed. The program is free to attend, but registration is required by visiting www.jeserie.org/events or by calling 814-459-8000.
