| North Point State Battlefield - Landscape Sketching |
| North Point State Park 6/22/2017 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Location: 2840-, 2878 S North Point Rd, Dundalk, MD 21222 City: Dundalk County: Baltimore Description: A hidden treasure located in Dundalk, the North Point State Battlefield was once the location where American soldiers stood firm against British advancement in defense of Baltimore. The Battle of North Point delayed the British enough to enable further fortification of the port city, and, as a result, Baltimore did not suffer a British raid during the War of 1812. The battle took place between groves of trees and meadow, recreated during the renovation of the Battlefield in 2015. Join naturalists for a peaceful reflection on these hallowed grounds by participating in a guided landscape sketch. Meet under the flag poles in the parking lot. Cost: Free Directions: North Point State Battlefield is located at the 2880 block of North Point Road, near the intersection of North Point Road and Trappe Road in Dundalk.
