Program Description

Event Details

Hurricane Agnes swept up the East Coast in the Summer of 1972, leaving a widespread path of destruction across 15 states, including Maryland. Fifty years later, Cecil County residents still remember the storm's impact on our communities. Join local historian Mike Dixon and Department of Emergency Services Director Wayne Tome as they share first-hand accounts of Agnes and stories of everyday heroics in the midst of one of the worst storms of our nation's history.
