Local Volunteers Needed For America250

Activities surrounding America’s 250^th birthday celebration are ramping up around the country and locally as well.  A parade is scheduled for June 27^th in downtown Cumberland but Canal Place also has several activities planned for the July 4^th celebration including live entertainment, a time capsule, dedication of a Liberty Tree, and other history-based activities. Those wishing to volunteer at the events can reach out to Kim Folk of Canal Place and the Heritage Area…

“Our campus here at Canal Place is pretty big and we’re going to be utilizing all of that space. If you only have a couple hours, we would love to have you. You know, just be involved in something that’s probably only going to happen once in your lifetime.”
