On Saturday, October 5 from 9 AM to 2 PM, the Odenton Heritage Society will open its doors for the town’s annual celebration of Odenton Day, a joint effort by the Odenton Heritage Society, Inc., Odenton Volunteer Fire Company, the Greater Odenton Improvement Association, and the Central Maryland Chamber.
Beginning at 10 AM, OHS will offer free, round trip, guided tours by shuttle bus from the OVFC Firehouse located at 1425 Annapolis Road, to the OHS Historical Center at 1367 Odenton Road. The tour will pass through Odenton’s historic area and include three sites on the National Register of Historic Places. At the OHS Historical Center visitors will have the opportunity to learn why Odenton is called “The Town the Railroads Built” while touring our museum and view a video presentation titled “A Trip to Annapolis on the WB&A Electric Railroad.”
Activities at the Odenton Firehouse will include fire related demonstrations, music, dancing and entertainment, activities for kids and displays by West County organizations and businesses. There will be free hot dogs, chips and drinks.
Admission to all activities is free. Please plan on visiting us at both locations.
