Chatham named one of America's Dozen Distinctive Destinations
March 7, 2007 -- Long known for its quaint atmosphere, Chatham has been recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation for its historic charm. It was announced today that Chatham and 11 other towns were selected to receive the designation of America's Dozen Distinctive Destinations. This annual list highlights unique and lovingly preserved communities in the United States.
"Chatham is an authentic, old-fashioned town that has never forgotten its sense of place," said Richard Moe, president of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
Tourism based on historic attractions is encouraged because it can extend the traditional tourist season, and because it is a sustainable, healthy form of tourism.
