Hi Mark,
ReplyDeleteI'm blogging away and I don't know that I have any audience, but...
My mission is to make interested parties aware of the Revolutionary events of their county in order to write the National Park Service before July 1st. This is show public support and ask to include the county in the new National Heritage Area being considered by the Congress. This gives more of NC opportunities to share in federal funding appropriated each year for all the NHAs.
Are you familiar with this? Here is a link to the Park Service Planning:
