In addition, the organization incurred $4,250 in expense for removal of a large tree on the property. Depreciation charges on capitalized costs amounted to $2,225. 0 19812 Historic Langhorne maintains a collection of books, artifacts, photographs and other documents of significance to the Langhorne and Bucks Co., PA area.

There are ongoing projects to transfer documents and photographs to digital format for easier access and for search purposes. All of this work is performed by volunteers. The organization entered into a contract with an outside organization to restore the original blueprints for the historic library building that were prepared by a well-known Philadelphia architecture firm. Costs incurred to date amount to $4,320. The project is expected to be complete by mid-2024. 0 1808 The Museum and library are open to the general public at no charge on Wednesday and Saturday mornings and Wednesday evenings, and by appointment.

Board meetings are conducted monthly. During October, the organization offers its annual Ghost Tours of Langhorne. This is a significant fundraising event consisting of evening walking tours with a combination of local history information and ghost stories associated with the historic Langhorne homes. Other fundraising events include a Spring Tea with a speaker and an annual Strawberry festival.
