Huge Thanks from Little Ivyland
We’d like to thank everyone who helped make our 150th Anniversary Celebration event a big success. At the risk of leaving anybody out this includes all our great sponsors, all the people that made personal donations, everyone that bought Ivyland merchandise on our fundraising website, our awesome 150th Celebration Committee members and the great volunteers who all gave their time to help before during and after the event. Our event participants, exhibitors and performers, too. We also don’t want to forget our fire police and police force for manning the barricades and keeping us all safe. And of course, a big thanks to all who came to the celebration from the borough and neighboring communities – we appreciate you ignoring the rain. Your patience paid off with a beautiful afternoon and evening for the history books. We hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

Thanks for a Great night of enjoying live music!
Ivyland’s 150th Celebration is this Saturday June 24th – Rain or Shine
That’s right we are quickly approaching the big celebration day this Saturday and we’re going to do it rain or shine. Let’s hope there’s more shine or at least there’s very little rain. So prepare yourself for the potential of some precipitation when you visit our celebration and prepare yourself for some great food and music too. We’ve set up some tents and canopies to provide some shelter but fingers crossed we won’t need them or at least very much. Check out our hot off the presses Event Brochure to see all that will be happening. Visitors should know that parking in the borough is pretty much highly limited and that we have arranged for some remote parking options that would be recommended for you to use including the Milton Roy parking lot off Ivyland Rd., the Berger Bros. parking lot off Jacksonville Rd. and parking at The Fuge with FREE shuttle service every 15 minutes to the event. Also that same shuttle will pick up Ann’s Choice residents at each of their three clubhouses. So come out and celebrate Ivyland’s 150th birthday with us.
