Miami Township, Ohio – Squire William Knepp, Miami Townshipās Town Crier, is stepping down soon from the position he created several years ago. Mr. Knepp hopes that a resident of Miami Township, āwho has a large amount of civic pride, is a believer in the Constitution, and possesses a loud voice and charming presenceā would be interested and committed in carrying on the tradition of a Town Crier.
This is a voluntary, unpaid position that includes duties of participating in local parades and attending functions such as grand openings.
Current Town Crier Knepp would provide some training and resources to obtain a town crier uniform and bell and would also provide the selected person with an initial membership in the
American Guild of Town Criers.
