Mount Airy Hall of Fame
The purpose of the Hall of Fame is to honor truly
deserving people, living or deceased, of Mount Airy
and the immediate surrounding areas, who by work,
service, volunteerism, word or deed, made the
community a better place for everyone. Also honored
will be those who were born here and went on to
bring honor and glory to the community by their
efforts, deeds, or life’s work outside of the area.
By honoring these individuals, it is believed that
their stories will inspire others to greater achievement
and make everyone aware of the fabric that is woven
into our home - Mount Airy, Maryland.
