Post events and ideas for local families and visitors in the Boston harbor, Maine, Rhode Island, and Connecticut water ways. The service is provided by Slinkset.com and we hope to open more of these feeds/sites in near future to get input from the Tours & Trips community.

Visit Preserve America Communities and Neighborhoods this summer.
Here is the information on Preserve America Community information from PreserveAmerica.gov website:
Communities may apply for special designation as a Preserve America Community, which recognizes communities that:
- protect and celebrate their heritage;
- use their historic assets for economic development and community revitalization; and
- encourage people to experience and appreciate local historic resources through education and heritage tourism programs.
When we looked at communities in various states the state of Texas and Kentucky came up with many more communities than other states in the Country. Here is snapshot of the country wide map with list of communities. Happy browsing.
