The plan for a village named “Jerusalem,” bounded on three sides by the Antietam Creek, was unveiled by Jacob Funck in 1767. The town boasted 177 lots, each being 82 feet 6 inches wide and 231 feet in length with one exception, lot #43 which by necessity was smaller. Shortly afterwards, lots were for sale and the town soon had fifteen log houses. Early residents referred to it as ‘Funck’s Jerusalem Town’ which became part of Washington County in 1776.
The community events for this year are Day in the Park to be held on July 11th and Olde Tyme Christmas that will be on December 11th. Both events are open to the general public and are great family entertainment. Each event has grown over the past few years to become two of the major events in Washington County with activities for young and old alike.
