Hagerstown urged to back Shenandoah Park creation
A letter to the Hagerstown Chamber of Commerce urged support for establishing Shenandoah National Park in the Virginia Blue Ridge, within sight of Washington. Major Leroy Dodges of the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce led the appeal, noting federal authorization and a 29 000 appropriation to begin surveying Virginia park areas. The Virginia site would be near the vast Shenandoah Valley, within about 0.2 miles of Maryland and a day’s drive from New York City.
