Message from Chief Swininger -

The inaugural Citadel Country Spirit USA Festival is officially in the books and will be remembered as a great success. Safety and security of those attending the festival, and our residents, was (and always is) our number one concern. We know that some of the road closures and minor traffic delays were an inconvenience and we do apologize. However, we are happy to report that there were zero arrests, zero vehicles towed for illegal parking and no major traffic issues or any other incidents to report. The crowd was fantastic and to all those who stopped to shake hands, take pictures and thank the first responders for being there, you are very welcome.

All of our police, fire, EMT’s, County and Local Emergency Services, fire police and dispatchers are to be commended for an outstanding job!!! We have been planning for this event for the past ten months and the amount of hours spent “behind the scenes” was incredible. We couldn’t have done this alone and would like to thank all the agencies that helped make this event successful and safe. We realize this is going to be a long list but it is a true example of the dedicated men and women behind the badge who are willing to answer the call at any time to ensure the safety of others.

Many thanks to the following: Ludwig’s Corner Fire Company, Uwchlan Ambulance, Chester County Department of Emergency Services, Chester County District Attorney’s Office, Chester County Regional Emergency Response Team, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Bomb Unit, Chester County Sheriff’s K-9 Unit, Septa K-9 Unit, Philadelphia Police Department, Pennsylvania State Police, PSP Mounted Patrol Unit, PSP Aviation, Pennsylvania Liquor Control Enforcement, Chester County Constables, Chester County Department of Health, East Vincent Township Police, East Coventry Township Police, West Pikeland Township Police and Emergency Operations Center, Department of Homeland Security, FBI, Chester County Fire Police, North Coventry Township Police and Upper Uwchlan Township Police.

I am especially thankful for the outstanding job of our West Vincent Township Police Officers, Emergency Operations Center, Road Crew, Zoning and Administrative Staff. You made our Township proud!! ... See MoreSee Less

Last night was tons of fun. Seemed like it all went pretty smooth. Thanks all who have taken personal time and put aside regular life to help make this work for all the fans!!! Love you guys 😘

Apparently, someone needs to brush up on motorcading skills, too much of a gap for maintaining security. But then again, a rescue isn’t designed for escort duty, lol. Pretty awesome that you’re having such a large event, nevertheless!

How far to a half decent hotel? King of Prussia?
