New Wilmington is a borough in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, United States, first platted in 1824 and established as a borough on April 9, 1863. The population was 2,466 at the 2010 census. It is home to Westminster College and serves the Old Order Amish community in the surrounding Wilmington Township.

The New Wilmington borough council outlawed pollen-producing plants of any kind, including dandelions and regular lawn grass in December 1967. (Chapter 122, Section 1 of the New Wilmington Code) The S.R. Thompson House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[4] New Wilmington was mentioned on The Colbert Report on January 24, 2007, when Stephen Colbert featured Pennsylvania's 4th congressional district and its representative, Jason Altmire, in its on-going series Better Know a District. In 2008, the Wilmington High School football team won its first state championship match, against the West Catholic Burrs.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
