Maryland Day Tours and Annapolis250 Activities
Dear Friends,
St. Anne’s Church and Cemetery will be celebrating our nation’s 250th birthday by joining the Annapolis250 events taking place throughout the city. Maryland Day will be observed this year from March 19 through March 25, culminating on the official Founding Day.
As part of the celebration, St. Anne’s will offer two special tours that highlight both the church and the cemetery:
Saturday, March 21
1:00 p.m. – Church Tour
2:00 p.m. – Cemetery Tour
Sunday, March 22
1:00 p.m. – Church Tour
2:00 p.m. – Cemetery Tour
These tours will connect the donated gifts that make St. Anne’s what it is today with the stories of the people who gave them, many of whom now rest in our cemetery.
Beginning March 22, look for weekly features in our announcements that will explore the history of St. Anne’s Church and highlight individuals buried in our cemetery who lived during the Revolutionary War era. We will also host additional special events throughout the year as we commemorate our country’s 250th anniversary.
Meet the Ancestors
Beginning next week, as we celebrate our country’s 250th birthday, the cemetery team will be sharing articles titled “Meet the Ancestors”. These will feature short biographies of the people who lived in Annapolis during our Revolutionary War years and are buried in our cemetery.
