SUMMARY:Ribbon Cutting: SEDA-COG Partnership for Revitalization
DESCRIPTION:The public is invited to a ribbon cutting to mark the official opening of the office for the Partnership for Revitalization in Shamokin.\n\nThe ceremony will begin at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 1 at SEDA-Council of Governments' (SEDA-COG) new downtown office at 525 N. Market St.\, Shamokin.\n\nThis officially kicks off the partnership efforts to revitalize the community between Shamokin City Council\, Shamokin Area Businesses for Economic Revitalization (SABER)\, and SEDA-COG\, said Bill Seigel\, SEDA-COG executive director.\n\n"Shamokin is experiencing a rebirth and a synergy. Our partners\, along with many others\, have recognized the opportunity in the Shamokin area to guide the city into a revitalization revolution\," Seigel said. \n\nThe Partnership for Revitalization is funded for three years through a $300\,000 Keystone Communities Fund grant\, thanks to state Rep.
