May is National Preservation Month
Each
year Preservation Warrenton, Inc. observes "May is National
Preservation Month" as established by the National
Trust for Historic Preservation whose slogan is "Save
the past. Enrich the future." There is a different theme
each May stressing historic preservation. The theme for 2014 is “New Age of Preservation: Embark, Inspire, Engage”.
Preservation Warrenton celebrates National Preservation Month with activities and projects
that promote its mission of "Preserving the Past for the
Future". To make the citizens of Warren County aware of
the importance of historic preservation, a large banner, "May
is Preservation Month" is hung on the corner of the Courthouse
Square. In addition, an article is printed in the local newspaper
informing its readers about the importance of protecting America's
heritage for future generations and encouraging everyone to
become involved in historic preservation.
