MAYORAL PROCLAMATION: AMERICA 250 | CT
The 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the formation of the United States of America will occur on July 4, 2026. In 2016 the United States Congress established the America 250 Commission to encourage observance of the 250 years of our nation's existence. As a result, Governor Lamont established Connecticut's Semiquincentennial Commission America 250 | CT which has engaged all 169 municipalities to execute an inclusive celebration, commemoration, and observance of the 250th Anniversary for all Connecticut residents.
Wallingford, founded in 1670, has contributed proudly and significantly to the history of our nation and our state for more than 355 years, and therefore Mayor Cervoni, has proclaimed that Wallingford will fully engage in commemorative activities leading up to and through July 4, 2026.
