Sagamore Hill National Historic Site
Join Our Friends
 

The Friends of Sagamore Hill is a heritage minded group of citizens who joined together to perpetuate Theodore Roosevelt's legacy and who forged a partnership with Sagamore Hill National Historic Site to preserve, restore, enhance and protect his historically significant home in Oyster Bay, NY. It is a non-profit, non-political, tax exempt organization.

Our Friends were the first National Park Service charter organization to receive the TAKE PRIDE IN AMERICA award. Former NPS Director Fran Mainella presented the award on the Sagamore Hill piazza on June 22, 2003.

Did You Know?
At Andrew Carnegie’s urging, Forbes Field, the world’s first all-steel and concrete baseball stadium was built in 1909. Look for its home plate, embedded in the first floor of the University of Pittsburgh’s Posvar Hall- located within Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area.
