Moscow, Ohio, May 28, 2026 – In the lead up to July 4, 2026, the Village of Moscow announced today it will work in unison with the America 250-Ohio Commission, Ohio’s official state commission charged with creating the celebration of the country’s semiquincentennial, as an official America 250-Ohio Community. As a partner of the America 250-Ohio commemoration, Moscow will have the opportunity to showcase its commitment to honoring the state’s diverse history and cultural heritage. The Village of Moscow will receive special recognition and a designation as an official America 250-Ohio Community and have access to a number of resources, including signage, event promotion, planning resources and a network of community leaders throughout the state.
“The Village of Moscow is proud to join other communities across the state of Ohio in celebrating 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the founding of our great nation. Residents of Moscow have fought valiantly for freedom as conductors on the Underground Railroad and as veterans in our armed forces. Each year, and especially this year, on the evening of July 3rd, our river town looks forward to celebrating our freedoms with fireworks,” said Mayor Tim Suter.
The America 250-Ohio Community program is a cornerstone of the Commission’s community engagement initiatives, which are designed to foster collaboration across Ohio’s 88 counties as the state prepares to celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary. The program is designed for all levels of municipalities from across the state, and it offers a unique opportunity for leaders to network, partner and exchange information with the state Commission. Resources made available to America 250-Ohio Communities include:
● Digital toolkits and event planning resources
● Access to an online community platform
● Regular check-ins with other America 250-Ohio Communities
● Statewide recognition of participation in America 250-Ohio programming
“The goal of bringing Ohioans together to celebrate and commemorate our state’s place in American history is central to the work of the America 250-Ohio Commission,” said Taylor Tomu, community engagement and outreach specialist at America 250-Ohio. “The Commission is thrilled to welcome the Village of Moscow as an official partner, and we look forward to working together to make the America 250-Ohio commemoration the biggest in our state’s history.”
