March: "Reclaiming the Dream – Uniting the Community"

The Town of Capitol Heights will host a Community March to commemorate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

This event, titled “Reclaiming the Dream – Uniting the Community,” was organized to empower residents and provide information to the community. The march through the Town will feature faith based, business and community leaders, including County Fire/EMS Chief Bashoor and other members of the Department. The march will end at the Capitol Heights Fire/EMS Station #805.

The march is call of action to community to both unite the town and promote the principles of public safety, service and support to our neighborhoods. Please join us for the day of service event and reclaim the community with the Town Council.
