Madonna of the Trail At the Fire Academy
Since December 2004 the Bethesda Maryland Madonna of the Trail has resided at the Montgomery County Fire Academy. A dispute between Metro and the WSSC over who is responsible for repairing the broken pipe underlying the sink hole into which the statue nearly fell has kept it in storage there.
She will remain there until I am assured, in writing that the site is safe for her return. -- Faith Libelo, Chairwoman of the DAR's Madonna of the Trail Commitee.
