Marker dedication to honor onetime fixture in Glen Rock community

Every year, Jon Nicklow pages back through Glen Rock’s long story to find an anniversary to celebrate. And every year, that anniversary is remembered in bronze. A memorial to the borough’s Community Recreation Building rose to the top of the Glen Rock Historic Preservation Society’s list this year. The Baltimore Street building opened in 1926, though it did not live to celebrate its century birthday. The building, bad roof and all, was demolished in 2010. But memories remain — a host of them. It served as the Glen Rock High School gym, Borough Hall, police headquarters, the Glen Rock Carolers hall, site of countless community dinners and much more. “If you grew up in town,” Nicklow of the Historic Preservation Society said, “you definitely knew where it was.” At one point, the building was expanded to cover the family home of prominent residents Jim and Mark Kroh. Part of the Kroh residence later served as a kitchen for the community building. “Jim would say,” Nicklow recalled, “that he was born under the kitchen sink.” A Glen Rock building does not have to stand to gain a plaque. So the old building will receive its marker — a $3,000 investment in

This Day In Maryland’s History – Enslaved Marylanders Receive Their Freedom

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Nov. 1 marked an important date for Maryland in 1864, for this was the day that every enslaved person in our state was legally granted their freedom. The Emancipation Proclamation had granted freedom to enslaved Americans across the rebel states nearly two years earlier, but since Maryland was a border state that remained in the Union, it required its own constitutional changes to abolish slavery once and for all.

Artists & Makers Studios | Montgomery County Woodturners and Friendship Star Quilters A Forest Meadow

Opening Reception: Friday, November 6 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Artists & Makers Studios is pleased to host Montgomery County Woodturners and Friendship Star Quilters for the month of November. The exhibit will run from November 4th through November 24th, with a First Friday opening on November 6th from 5-8pm. In this exhibit these two separate, traditional forms of artwork complement one another in their depictions of woodland meadows. After all, a meadow shows the hidden diversity within a forest when a tree has fallen, bringing forth a burst of flowers and smaller plants – providing quilters an opportunity to explore subject matter beyond trees. At the same time, the tree fall that creates such a meadow provides the wood that the wood-turning artists use to create their beautiful expressions of wonder.
