SUMMARY:Box Lunch Talk: Memories of Oakland Mills Before the Building of Liberty Reservoir Presented by The Liberty Reservoir History Group
DESCRIPTION:The town of Oakland Mills existed in the Southeast corner of Carroll County prior to its demolition by Baltimore City to facilitate the damming of the North Branch of the Patapsco River. This talk features two speakers\, one who lived in the town prior to the reservoir and the other whose mother was born and raised in Oakland Mills while her father grew up on a farm on Ridge Road. They are cousins and will share personal and family memories of the town\, events surrounding the closing of the mill\, destruction of the town and with it….a way of life. \nThe Liberty Reservoir History Group is an informal gathering of individuals who meet monthly to capture the history of the land and life stories of the people impacted by the building of Liberty Reservoir which was completed in 1953. \nElaine McLaughlin and Wallie Meeks are members who shared their childhood memories at previous group meetings and now have a chance to share them with you! \nAs always\, there is no registration for Box Lunch Talks. You bring your lunch\, and we provide the drinks and desserts (thanks to our volunteers and staff). The cost is $3 for HSCC members and $5 for nonmembers. \nQuestions? Please contact Laura Bankard\, Outreach & Events Director at lbankard@hsccmd.org or 410.848.6494 ext. 200.
