County Commissioners

Queen Anne's County Commissioner Phil Dumenil presented John White with the American Legion Jeff Davis Post 18 in Centreville a proclamation from the County Commissioners commending him being names the National Son's of the American Legion Commander of the Year for 2025. 

Queen Anne’s County Commissioners were honored at their September 9 meeting with a special presentation from the Queen Anne's Chorale.

Earlier this summer, members of the Chorale traveled to Normandy, France, where they performed as part of the international D-Day commemoration events. With the help of the Queen Anne's County Library, the Chorale researched and located the grave of Private First-Class William H. Quillen, a Centreville native who lost his life during World War II and is buried at the Normandy American Cemetery.

The Chorale placed a Queen Anne’s County flag at his grave during the trip. Signed by Chorale members, the flag was formally presented to the Commissioners as a lasting tribute to Private Quillen’s sacrifice and the county’s connection to this moment in history.

Queen Anne’s Chorale participates in regional and international performances and is supported in part by the United Way of Queen Anne’s County, the Queen Anne’s County Centre for the Arts, and the Maryland State Arts Council.

The event will be held on Saturday, September 13, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Queen Anne’s County Council for the Arts, 206 S. Commerce Street in Centreville.

The Commissioners encourage all residents to sign up for a library card this September and take advantage of the many services and programs offered by the Queen Anne’s County Library.
