Radnor A Better Chance

A Better Chance is a program that allows children from disadvantaged areas to attend a high school that may give them a better chance at success. The Radnor ABC house is on West Wayne Avenue in Wayne. The organization is in desperate need of donations and volunteers. On Thursday, Dec. 13 at 7:30 p.m. watch Patch TV on channel 21 for an interview with ABC representatives. The show will then be run on Radnor Patch and our Youtube channel.

Radnor Historical Society

From the Radnor Historical Society

Have you attended one of our programs, visited http://RadnorHistory.org , done research at the Finley House, enjoyed reading The Bulletin for 2011, watched the Conestoga Wagon pass by on Memorial Day, noticed the improvements in the War Memorial,  or read the historical signs along the Radnor Trail?  The Radnor Historical Society has been involved in providing all of these services that improve the quality of life in Radnor.  As we continue to increase our presence in the community, our costs also increase.   

The RHS Board of Directors is very appreciative of the community support that we receive from our members.  Because of rising expenses, both in fixed costs such as house maintenance, electricity, postage and printing, and in our wider community involvement, the Board has voted to increase dues for 2013.  We normally send our mail solicitation in mid-December, but we would like to try something new this year.  We are asking you to print out this form and send your check in now, before the formal request is mailed around December 21.  It will also insure that you can get your tax deduction in 2012.   We are offering a 10% discount for those who mail their dues by December 18, so that we receive your membership prior to incurring the expenses of the mailing.  The lower dues are indicated in green.   Thank you in advance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like to join or to renew your membership in this manner, please print out either this email or the attachment and send the completed form, along with your check, to: Radnor Historical Society 113 West Beechtree Lane Wayne, PA 19087-3212.    The 2013 categories and rates are as follows:
