The Alabama Bicentennial Commission and Mercedes-Benz U.S. International Inc. (MBUSI) will announce the launch of the Alabama PastPort Project.
The launch will take place at the Mercedes-Benz Visitors Center in Vance at 10 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 26, and will be carried live on Alabama NewsCenter’s Facebook page.
“The bicentennial of Alabama is a once-in-a-lifetime moment and it demands a project that can make a lifetime of difference,” said Sen. Arthur Orr, chair of the Alabama Bicentennial Commission. “These unique opportunities will inspire a younger generation to learn about the great treasures of Alabama, while fostering education in a stimulating and exciting way.”The PastPort is meant to be a passport to the past and will serve as the official bicentennial publication and a guide to Alabama’s historic places. Children, parents, teachers and out-of-state visitors can use the Alabama Bicentennial PastPort Project to visit every corner of Alabama. Each of the state’s 67 counties has at least one destination in the PastPort, which includes information about offerings in every region.
