A Preakness tradition will honor the life of the late George E. Mitchell, a community leader dedicated to the Park Heights community. The Black-Eyed Susan Stakes was renamed in his honor last year and a fellowship grant will be awarded this year in his memory.
Park Heights Renaissance has selected Project Access to receive the first $25,000 grant. The organization supports an urban agriculture curriculum and gives children the opportunity to grow and harvest their own food. To learn more about Project Access, click here.
