CCASM at Piscataway Celebration

On Sunday July 5 Maryland's Piscataway Indian communities celebrated the 375th anniversary of the St. Mary of Piscataway Catholic Church becoming established here in Maryland. The signal event marking that occasion was the baptism of 13th generation Tayac, Kittamaqua (Great Beaver), his wife and children.

Several archaeological organizations including CCASM had displays there.  CCASM members helping included Carol, Barbara and her niece, as well as Ed and his daughter.
