About the Mahanoy Area Historical Society

 

Mahanoy City, situated at the intersection of Route 339 and Route 54, is a gateway into the region from the east and from the north via Route 81. This community has a great sense of pride and volunteer support. Mahanoy City will enhance its downtown and promote its sense of community and low-cost of living. It will be a clean, green and safe community and create a place where people want to live and work.

 

The Mahanoy Area Historical Society is seeking new members. Please consider joining our society. Even if you can't be an active member, your membership dues help our society to do a more effective job in preserving our history and enhancing our community. Our Society is dedicated to serve not simply Mahanoy City, but the entire area encompassed by the Mahanoy Area High School District. This would include Mahanoy Township, Gilberton, Maizeville, St. Nicholas, Wiggans, Delano, Barnesville, Park Place, and so forth. If your interests lie in any of these communities, please join us so we can work together.
