The CSP, after many years of planning, studying and research, was launched in March of 2016 offering historical tours and memorabilia. The first year was a great success and we thank every person who has made it possible. For 2017, we are working to offer more of the same and expand our tourism services as well as the merchandise.
We’re delighted to have received over 35 FIVE STAR ratings on our facebook page, many with comments. View the pics of some of our events and activities, with testimonials below. Thank you.
