Dedication of New City Hall.
Come help celebrate the Grand Opening of Vancouver’s new City Hall on Saturday, September 17, 2011 from noon to 3pm at 415 W. Sixth Street (next to Esther Short Park). “Dedication of a new City Hall may only happen once in a lifetime for many of us,” said Vancouver Mayor Timothy D. Leavitt. “This is Your Key to the City of Vancouver – come help us celebrate an historic occasion. This is a turning point in the renaissance of historic Vancouver, the birthplace of modern settlement in the Pacific Northwest on the Columbia River.”
Come take a tour of new Vancouver City Hall, meet Vancouver City Council, staff and volunteers as well as colorful characters in Vancouver’s history. Guests will have the opportunity to participate in “We are Vancouver” filming, take a free Zumba class, view historic airplanes from Pearson Air Field and Museum, and take a guided walking tour led by the Clark County Historical Society. Kids can join in Junior City Council sessions and play Mayor for a day, up on the City Council dais viewable on the Clark-Vancouver TV screen.
