A celebration will take place June 21 from 5-7 p.m. at Courthouse Square in Delhi sponsored by the Delaware County Democratic Committee to commemorate the date when the Constitution became law. It was June 21, 1788, that the threshold for 2/3 of the states was met as New Hampshire became the ninth state to ratify the Constitution.
The program will feature a short address by Richard Stein, former co-publisher and general manager of the Riverdale Press, a Pulitzer Prize-winning weekly newspaper in the Bronx. Stein will focus on the importance of a free press in our democracy. In addition, there will be readings of the Bill of Rights, music by the Tremperskill Boys, a “know your Constitution” quiz and homemade baked goods.
