Camptown Races Remembered - A BIG SUCCESS!
Thank you to everyone who came out to Eagle Point Farm to celebrate the history of Camptown Races on May 9. We especially want to thank Donna and Karen Dennehy for hosting this wonderful event at the place where the idea of holding a “Country Race Meet” was sparked by Ed Gilman.
If you couldn’t attend, you may still support the museum with a membership or a donation.
