Summary
Norm Corbin, chair of the Northborough Revolution 250 Committee, announced a short video series and a "big event" as part of the Town of Northborough's 250th anniversary commemorations; committee has existed nearly two years and did not specify dates or funding.
Norm Corbin, chair of the Northborough Revolution 250 Committee, said the committee formed to mark the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and will produce a series of short videos and stage events highlighting Northborough's role in the war.
Corbin told attendees that the committee, active for almost two years, ran a variety of events last year and is continuing programming this year. He described a "big event" as the centerpiece of the commemoration and said the video series is being prepared to spotlight local contributions during the Revolutionary era.
The committee did not provide dates, schedules or budget details during the remarks.
