CAPPA’s Mission & Vision Statement:

“CAPPA promotes land use that sustains our rural communities and the natural resources,
open spaces, beauty, history and culture of the Thurmont region.

Our vision for Thurmont is that it should fulfill its potential as Gateway to the Mountains; that it should keep its core identity as a small Maryland town in a pristine, scenic location that offers the best in Maryland’s natural beauty and rural heritage; that it should offer a pleasant and desirable environment for town and surrounding residents; that it should attract visitors drawn to the beauty of the area; and that it should develop an economy that is in harmony with its surroundings and that sustains its population and government.”
