Albion Symbols – The Forks

A discussion of Albion symbols would not be complete without a review of “The Forks.”  There is the Festival of the Forks, The Forks Senior Center, the Forks of the River.   Albion was founded at the Forks of the Kalamazoo River, and there was a discussion of naming the city “The Forks,” and Peabodyville, before we settled on “Albion,” named after a place in England near the White Cliffs of Dover.

 

In this collection of Forks images, we have two Festival of the Forks buttons with designs by Albion Youth (recreated digitally by a professional artist,) the Unity and Diversity Banner, a map of Albion, the Forks Senior Center, and the Sister City logo.
