Celebrating South Hill's 125th Anniversary

The Town of South Hill is proud to celebrate its 125th anniversary. Mayor Moody and Town Council officially proclaimed February 16, 2026, as Founders Day in recognition of this milestone.

To commemorate 125 years of growth, progress, and community, the Town— in partnership with the South Hill Revitalization Committee—has launched a year-long video campaign. Throughout the year, we will share stories that highlight the people who make South Hill special: those who live, work, and play here.

We invite you to enjoy the videos featured here and visit our YouTube channel to experience the full series.

Happy 125th Anniversary, South Hill!
