Washington Grove is a small town in the middle of Montgomery County with a unique form of government. It was called by its first mayor, “a Town within a forest, an oasis of tranquility and a rustic jewel in the diadem of the great free state of Maryland.” One-time Mayor and Town Historian Phil Edwards will discuss how Washington Grove came to be chartered in 1873 and how it evolved into the vibrant community it is today.
