PRESERVATION OPPORTUNITIES
*(Coming Soon, contact us for more information)
"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower

"To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace."
George Washington

"...It is a proud privilege to be a soldier - a good soldier...[with] discipline, self-respect, pride in his unit and his country, a high sense of duty and obligation to comrades and to his superiors, and a self confidence born of demonstrated ability."
-George S. Patton,  Jr.

Visitors and tourists from all over the country and world have visited Mount Olivet. A major draw is the grave monument and memorial to Francis Scott Key. In fact, President William Taft visited the Key monument in March, 1911, and laid a ceremonial wreath at its base. In 2018 we will launch a funding campaign to enhance "Key Memorial Circle" with new walkways, landscaping, lighting and additional interpretation. This area currently serves home to the Key Monument, Delaplaine Garden and the busts of Thomas Johnson, Jr. and Roger Brooke Taney.
