Reflecting on the past year, we are struck by all that Historic St. Mary’s City has to be thankful for, including our members, volunteers, and donors.
The time, monetary generosity, and social support we receive ensures that HSMC can continue to preserve and protect the archaeological and historical record of this land. Thank you for allowing HSMC to continue building momentum in serving its mission. We invite you to continue to support that legacy during this 2021 Giving Season by donating at any point during the month of December.
Words of gratitude from our staff:
After a crazy 2020, I feel so much appreciation for the start of return to normal at the museum. I am so grateful for all the volunteers that have returned to us, and for all the new ones that decided to join the volunteer family! Our volunteer core is dedicated, passionate, generous, and a lot of fun! Each and every volunteer at HSMC are what make my job so much fun! – Ellen Fitzgerald, Volunteer Coordinator
I am thankful for the support of the HSMC Foundation and the Development Team. It has been an honor to work with these groups over the past 33 months. As our team has grown and our institution has celebrated several significant discoveries and milestones it has been so much fun to be a part of a team that cares so much. Stay tuned in 2022 as we expand events, bring back some favorites, and add new ones to the calendar – Howie Grube, Director of Development
I’m grateful to work with an incredible team of researchers dedicated to bringing stories from Maryland’s past to life through historical and archaeological investigation. I’m equally grateful to work for a community of passionate people committed to sharing their history with us, and helping us get the stories right. – Travis Parno, Director of Research and Collections
As the Event Manager at HSMC, I am truly grateful to all my wonderful couples that celebrated their wedding at our beautiful venues and to all my guests that chose HSMC for their private or public event. It truly is a pleasure to work with so many people to help make their dreams come true. – Mary Bohanan, Events Coordinator
I am grateful for all of the youth volunteers that help HSMC. I have seen them do everything from setting up chairs for an after hours event to cooking over a fire in period costume. There is hope for the future when our present youth choose to help us honor the past. – Aaron Meisinger, Interpretive Programs Manager
