Newtown Alive gives residents a Taste of Newtown

Newtown Alive lead consultant Vickie Oldham had a lot to dance about at the Newtown Redevelopment Office on April 8. 

Residents, local officials and Newtown Alive volunteers gathered in the parking lot for the Taste of Newtown block party to dedicate Newtown's newly installed historical markers. 

Eventgoers mingled as trollies took guests on a tour of the 15 markers that commemorate the neighborhood's history. 

In between tours children played games as adults mingled and listened to live music. 

"It's a family affair," Oldham said.
