Bingham’s Bicentennial 1812-2012

Binghamhad a very successful Bicentennial with a full week of well attended events. The Homecoming offered a chance for reuniting with old friends and classmates. Children's Day & Franco-American Festival were a huge success. The Historic Rides filled up and many interesting facts and stories were told. The parade was the best we have seen in many years. AND THE FIREWORKS! The Town of Bingham gives a huge Thank You to all the volunteers who helped make this the best Bicentennial we could have asked for.
