The
Homestead Story covers 270 million acres, is tied to 93 million Americans,
spanned 123 years and is directly tied to the development of the largest
agricultural superpower in the history of the World! Furthermore, this law
attracted the imaginations of citizens of the world as it offered free land
to most anyone willing to move to our Nation in search of an opportunity at
the American Dream! May 20, 2012 our Nation will observe the 150th
Anniversary, in what has been said is one of our most significant laws ever
created in the history of the United States; the Homestead Act of 1862!
A
program marking this historic event will be held at Homestead National
Monument of America. President Obama along with other dignitaries and special
groups have been invited to attend this Anniversary.
