Cromwell commemorates the nation's 250th Anniversary

250 Voices

Join in as we gather 250 voices to create a recording capturing the voices of Cromwell reading the Declaration of Independence.  While certainly not perfect by our 2026 standards, this document set in motion the idea that a free people could not only govern themselves, but that this country could eventually become a place where all people are valued equally.    Intended to capture the present day voice of Cromwell, this project will be recorded at Cromwell High School and will include the choirs of Cromwell and those from the community that come forward to have their voices added to the reading.  Anyone interested in taking part should contact the Historical Society via email at cromwellcthistory@gmail.com
