| Though not far from the hustle and bustle of Harrisburg, our small town's charm lies in its small town atmosphere and sense of community that extends
from shopkeepers on Bridge Street to the borough’s
creek side park, once the site
of an iron forge and
saw mills in the borough’s early days.
A sense of history is important to the people who call
New Cumberland home.
Residents and business people
alike strive to better their hometown with the same
drive of
early settlers who seized the opportunity presented by the
nearby Susquehanna River
and Yellow Breeches Creek as
perfect transportation routes for lumber they could produce
in saw mills – thus giving birth to the town’s first industry. At its core, it is people living life together that makes New Cumberland a pleasant place to live or work. Spread a blanket at the New Cumberland Summer Picnic, tune into the town band on July Fourth, or celebrate the changing seasons at the annual Apple Festival – and you’ll see what makes this “small town” so special! |
