Battle of Bladensburg Bicentennial
A representative from the Anacostia Trails Heritage Area (ATHA) came to the Council work session last Tuesday to speak about the group’s activities in promoting history and arts of local municipalities.
The City of College Park pays $8,000 yearly to be part of the Anacostia Trails Heritage Area (ATHA).
ATHA provides resources and programs to mark the history of the areas surrounding the Anacostia watershed, including historical trails and markers and celebrations and events commemorating the history, culture and natural resources of the area.
Recently, ATHA launched the Maryland Milestones program to celebrate important historical events that happened in our area.
More information about ATHA, including upcoming events and resources in the area, is available at www.anacostiatrails.org.
