Our Mission is for all people who live, work, and visit Lynnwood to celebrate the City’s 50th birthday with a year-long celebration commencing April 23, 2009 and culminating April 23, 2010. 

The year-long celebration will consist of events and activities that:

  • Create civic pride;
  • Are possible through community partnerships (residents, businesses, volunteers, schools, churches, civic groups);
  • Honor our history; and/or create a legacy for our future.
