It's not everyday that a speaker from the Arlington Historical Society gets a marquee sign advertisement. Thank you to the Glencarlyn Library and the Glencarlyn Civic Association for hosting Annette Benbow to talk about why the Ball-Sellers House is a microcosm of American history. It was almost a full house of interested and engaged folks. It was also a great way to tie up the 250th anniversary of country.
