Senator Bob Mensch (R-24) and Representative Paul Clymer (R-145) honored Sine’s 5 & 10 Cent Store with Senate and House citations during Sine’s 100th anniversary celebration on Friday morning.

“The Sine family’s dedication to the Quakertown community is commendable and their entrepreneurial spirit embodies the American dream,” said Mensch. “I congratulate Sine’s 5 & 10 Store on their 100 years in business and wish them continued success in the future.”

“Sine’s is a community treasure that brings back memories of days gone by,” said Clymer. “A staple in our business community, everyone cherishes the place this store holds in Quakertown’s rich history. I am honored to able to celebrate this milestone with the community and the Sine family, and present a citation commemorating the achievement.”
