Enjoy an adventurous look into the life of one of Maryland's famous frontiersmen. Thomas Cresap helped blaze the trail to Western Maryland in the early 1700's and connected with its native culture and wildlife. The program will include entertaining stories about Cresap and items used in his many occupations (land agent, surveyor, farmer, trapper, trader, militia leader).
A fee will be charged. Call Jeffrey Ruark at the Western Regional Office of the Maryland Park Service (301-777-2431) to schedule a program.
