A big thank you to Blue Ridge Summit Free Library for hosting this event!

We are excited that so many people are interested in attending our Local History Talk about Fort Ritchie this coming Monday! Please note that our Community Room can only safely hold 40 people at one time, meaning that this program will be limited in attendance to the first 40 people who arrive. Since this topic has proven to be so popular, we will happily host the Ritchie Museum presenters again in the future, so don't worry if you can't make it to this one! Thank you all for your understanding; I wish we had unlimited space for everyone.
