Stroll Blue Bell
Blue Bell’s Finest was a monthly social magazine for residents of the Blue Bell Country Club, located on land that was part of Whitpain Township’s historic Normandy Farm. In July 2022, the magazine became Stroll Blue Bell, to indicate that is part of a national effort to help create community. The publication has kindly asked WVHS to contribute local history articles, which are available here.
