Description: Quinnebaug and Shetucket Rivers Valley National Heritage Corridor in northeast Connecticut and south-central Massachusetts is one of the last unspoiled and undeveloped areas in the northeastern U.S. It has remained largely intact and has important prehistoric archeological sites, diversified agriculture, excellent water quality, beautiful rural landscapes, architecturally significant mill structures and mill villages, and a large acreage of parks and other permanent space. Funding was provided to launch a Local History Month, implement a constituent survey and analysis, launch an innovative program of tours, kid's guides, interpretive materials and annual events, develop specialized bike tours of the region, design a unified graphics program for the region, provide technical assistance for local capacity building, and implement a heritage tourism partnership with Connecticut East.
