In 1963, Claremont received it's five-digit zip code - 91711. Next Saturday our fair city will celebrate a once-in-a-lifetime event - Zip Code Day. September (9) Seventeen (17) in the year 2011 (11) - 9.17.11. Since the next time we will have this date will be in the year 2111, I believe this will be my only time to mark this historic occasion.
Organizers have put together a day of events with something for everybody. You can see the page at
celebrate91711.com. If I get my act together, I may just send out some mail to get that special postmark.
Also...one may want to hear the Village Pipers from 11-12 in front of City Hall (free) with a special piece commemorating the day. ...
