Parking won't be a problem! Fleet Depot and D&C Supply are opening their parking lots to folks in town for the 125th Anniversary. Both lots are right off of Washington Avenue. Just look for the event parking signs!
And we'll have shuttle service from there to Commercial Street from Wednesday, July 22 through Saturday, July 25.
Please note: this schedule is a work in progress and subject to change. Underlined events can be clicked for details.
SAT July 18 · 8:15 AM
Bridgeville's first-ever 5K! A chip-timed run/walk through the borough to kick off the 125th anniversary celebration.
SAT July 18 · 5 PM
July 18 at the Chartiers Room is going to be the bee’s knees, and you’d be a flat tire to miss it. Dinner’s served at 6 p.m. sharp, then cut a rug to live jazz for the rest of the night.
The Night: The speakeasy’s secret doors open at 5 p.m., with the right password. Dinner is served at 6 p.m., and dancing goes on until 11 p.m.
The Tradition: Bridgeville has long marked each 25-year-milestone with a dinner and dance — a chance to get the whole town in one room. This year’s 1920s theme is a deliberate one: a colorful, indulgent era of excitement and rebellious passion, brought to life with glamour, flamboyant style, and sultry jazz.
The Food: Dinner is catered by PJ Deli.
The Drinks: Each ticket includes two complimentary specialty drinks. After that, it’s a cash bar.
The Music: The Rick Purcell Trio will be on stage all night, playing live jazz. Plan to dance.
The Auction: A Chinese auction featuring items donated by local businesses will be open for bidding throughout the evening.
The “Fountain of Cheer”: A raffle stocked with donated bottles — a nod to the Prohibition-era inspiration behind the night.
The Costumes: Best-dressed guests will take home costume prizes.
