Keynote Address – Public Interpretation and the Evolution of the Montgomery County Parks Archaeology Program (Cassandra Michaud)

Montgomery Parks has long incorporated archaeological research into public sites and programming, with activities ranging from public events to volunteer days to the creation of the Josiah Henson Museum and Park. The Archaeology Program participates in park land site development and interpretation both as stewards and as contributors to the larger story of the county. This presentation will explore a variety of ways that archaeological work is integrated into Parks public projects, including future plans at the recently acquired Ednor Soapstone Quarry Park.
