Our organization’s vision is that Boyertown is a welcoming, vibrant, and engaging community for people from all walks of life. We cherish and support its history, arts, businesses, retail, agriculture, and offer an unparalleled tourist experience. This vision of where we’ve been and how much we can grow was shared by our former Mayor, Founder, and late friend, Marianne Deery.

​

We know that this Giving Tuesday, you’ll help us lay the foundation for placemaking projects that proudly showcase the Boyertown that Marianne loved – including a commemorative upgrade to our Community Walkway. Just as Marianne welcomed all who came through her doors as innkeeper of the Twin Turrets, this walkway acts a front porch, welcoming all from our town center parking lot “driveway”, between Bridget’s Place and The Peppermint Stick Candy Store, out onto our bustling main street- home at last.

 

Our new walkway will…

• Enhance aesthetic appeal with landscape and hardscape upgrades

• Integrate art and culture with artistic pieces

• Be designed with accessibility and inclusivity in mind

• Create a safe and enjoyable public space for all ages

• Honor the memory of Marianne Deery in name and dedication

​

 ​We invite you, as part of the family, to assist in the costs needed to plan, design, and execute placemaking projects like our Community Walkway. Join us today in bringing our vision to life – designing a legacy for our authentic hometown community.
