field of American flags with an overlayed logo for America 250

The City is proud to commemorate the 250th anniversaries of both America and Montgomery County with a series of special events and programs celebrating the diverse communities that shape our nation and our county. In 1776, the original 13 colonies declared independence on July 4, setting the United States on its path as a new nation. Just months later, on September 6, Frederick County was subdivided to accommodate a growing population, creating three counties, one of which became Montgomery County.

Activities and exhibits celebrating America 250 include:

Winter Walk - Celebrating 250 Years of Community

Join us for a festive Winter Walk honoring 250 years of community spirit!  Stroll through outdoor displays featuring colorful inflatables and yard decorations that showcase the diversity of our City.  Along the way, discover fence post signs sharing the history of Casey Community Center, from its beginnings as a dairy barn to its role today as a hub for fitness, dance, family programs, and community events.
