Information about the Cape Charles Historical Society
Our Mission
The Cape Charles Historical Society is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit. The Cape Charles Museum and Welcome Center opened in 1996 and is dedicated to preserving and presenting to the public the history of Cape Charles and surrounding areas. It is the hope of the Cape Charles Historical Society that inspiration from the richness of its past will help guide Cape Charles' renewal and growth.
Our Mission:
To build awareness and pride in the cultural, technical and historical diversity of the Lower Eastern Shore, particularly Cape Charles.
To create a community center for the presentation of educational programs of interest and importance to the community, energizing residents to build a stronger future.
To preserve local and regional historic structures, artifacts, and oral history for tomorrow's citizens.
To support a regional historic archive and research office for collecting, organizing, documenting and analyzing historic materials.
Our Board
We are always looking for new Board Members. Many not-for-profits select their board from their donors: we instead seek people who care about our mission and can contribute in some meaningful way. Please join us!
Board meetings are open to the public, and held at 10am at the Museum on the fourth Wednesday of every month

Site Content
Additional Information
This is a long form text area designed for your content that you can fill up with as many words as your heart desires. You can write articles, long mission statements, company policies, executive profiles, company awards/distinctions, office locations, shareholder reports, whitepapers, media mentions and other pieces of content that don’t fit into a shorter, more succinct space.
Articles – Good topics for articles include anything related to your company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.
Mission statements – You can tell a lot about a company by its mission statement. Don’t have one? Now might be a good time to create one and post it here. A good mission statement tells you what drives a company to do what it does.
Company policies – Are there company policies that are particularly important to your business? Perhaps your unlimited paternity/maternity leave policy has endeared you to employees across the company. This is a good place to talk about that.
Executive profiles – A company is only as strong as its executive leadership. This is a good place to show off who’s occupying the corner offices. Write a nice bio about each executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.
