CLICK HERE TO REGISTER The Waverly Waddle is the Comm’s annual 5k Run/2 Mile Walk beginning and ending at the Waverly Community House. The “Waddle” travels an approximate 3-mile route […]
Last week Destination Freedom & Historical Programs Manager EJ Murphy was invited to The Dennis Farm Charitable Land Trust in Susquehanna County for a tour of one of Northeastern Pennsylvania’s most important historic sites. The Dennis Farm was originally settled by the family of Prince Perkins, free African Americans who moved to Northeastern Pennsylvania from Connecticut in 1793, and was later expanded by their descendants, the Dennis family. The site has ties to the American Revolution, the Underground Railroad, the Civil War era, and beyond.
During the visit EJ had the opportunity to meet and speak with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro about the importance of historic sites and programs such as the Dennis Farm and the Destination Freedom: Underground Railroad Walking Tour at the Waverly Community House, and how they can be utilized by the public as tools to help foster a deeper understanding of our country’s complex history. The Comm is proud to partner with the Dennis Farm in the expansion of the Destination Freedom program to include walking tours and programs in areas associated with the Underground Railroad throughout our area, including Susquehanna County.
Many thanks to the Dennis Farm team, our partners at the Endless Mountains Heritage Region, and Governor Shapiro for the amazing experience and the chance to discuss local history, education, and public engagement.
