April proclaimed as Charles County Archaeology Month

On Tuesday, April 12, the Charles County Commissioners proclaimed the month of April as Archaeology Month in Charles County (to coincide with Maryland Archaeology Month).  Charles County has a rich history and heritage, exemplified by historic buildings, cultural landmarks, natural features, and local rituals.  The county is enhanced by historic preservation associations, groups, and professionals who donate countless hours and dollars to preserve our history.

CCASM members Carol and Elsie received the proclamation and then gave each of the commissioners and the Deputy Commissioner a Maryland Archaeology Month poster along with the accompanying brochure.
