Special Announcement on the BCC Property/Land Sale

/in /by

From Mary Page Michel, Roland Park Community Foundation Chair:

The Greater Roland Park community has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to purchase 20 acres of land at the Baltimore Country Club. The following article from the Roland Park News Winter Edition, which should have arrived in your mailbox December 1st, has not yet been delivered due to problems at the U.S. Post Office. This exciting news needs to be shared with the community, as we will need financial support to create a community park.

For questions or more information please email Communityfoundation@rolandpark.org.
