Neighbors gathered at a local eatery to mark that occasion and the past year's achievements. Rainstorms couldn't scare away residents from the celebration! The original sign dedication ceremony was on October 17, 1998. That date was declared "Old West Durham Day" by mayoral proclamation and local officials said wonderful things about what this neighborhood has accomplished over a very short period of time. Everyone had a great time and met new neighbors in Old West Durham.
