John Marsh House to Speak at FOMCW Meeting

Here is something neat for Thursday (April 4) for you community history buffs as the Friends of Marsh Creek Watershed will be inviting the folks from the John Marsh History Trust during their monthly meeting.  The group will discuss the house,  history of the house, and the State Park.

“We are looking forward to working with the John Marsh Historical Trust and all the opportunities it presents with the the Marsh Creek State Park. The John Marsh House is located right on Marsh Creek and we look forward to learning more about what they are doing. When people go to the John Marsh House, they are going to also see Marsh Creek so its a logical partnership,” said Friends of Marsh Creek Watershed Executive Director Diane Burgis.

The meeting will begin at 7:00 pm and are held at the Liberty Union High School District offices located at 20 Oak Street, Brentwood.
