Preservation Month is a month-long national celebration designed to spotlight community's preservation efforts. Formerly held only for a week, the National Trust has extended Preservation Week into Preservation Month to provide an even larger opportunity to celebrate the diverse and unique heritage of our country's cities and states. For the third year in a row, the Bank of Edwardsville is providing the framed certificates for the award winners.
