About Cumberland
Maryland, MD
Cumberland is a city in and the county seat of Allegany County, Maryland, United
States. The gateway to western Maryland, it is the primary city of the
Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area. Cumberland is a regional
business and commercial center for Western Maryland and the Potomac Highlands of
West Virginia. Cumberland is commonly referred to as "Where The South Begins."
Industry declined after World War II. Much of the later urban, business and
technological development in the state has been concentrated in eastern coastal
cities. Today the Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area is one of the
poorest in the United States, ranking 305th out of 318 metropolitan areas in per
capita income. Cumberland also served as an outpost of Colonel George Washington
during the French and Indian War, and his first military headquarters was built
here. Washington returned as President of the United States in 1794 to
Cumberland to review troops assembled to thwart the Whiskey Rebellion. The
Downtown Cumberland Historic District is an attraction for locals and tourists
alike. The heart of the downtown area is Baltimore Street. Formerly the main
thoroughfare through the city, Baltimore Street is now a brick pedestrian mall.
The street is lined with large multi-story commercial buildings, most of which
were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These buildings, which
were formerly banks, hotels, and department stores, are relics of the city's
former wealth and importance during the industrial age. They now contain more
tourist oriented businesses such as sidewalk cafes, antique stores, boutiques
and art galleries. Baltimore Street hosts some of the city's biggest sidewalk
festivals and block parties. Downtown Cumberland's Arts & Entertainment District
is home to the Allegany Arts Council and its Saville Gallery, the Allegany
Museum, the Cumberland Theatre, the Arts at Canal Place Cooperative Gallery, the
New Embassy Theatre, the Cumberland Music Academy, MettleArts Studio & Foundry,
the Arteco Gallery and Institute for Creative Enterprise, Windsor Hall (a
multi-purpose performance venue), the Gilchrist Museum of the Arts, the
Gordon-Roberts House, the Graphicus Atelier print-making studio, and a variety
of retail and specialty stores. Seasonal events include the Cumberland Comes
Alive music series, Saturday Arts Walks, and the annual Mountain Maryland
Artists’ Studio Tour.

Interesting Birthday Facts
The idea of celebrating the date of your birth is a pagan
tradition. In fact, many Christians didn't celebrate
birthdays historically, because of that link to paganism.
Pagans thought that evil spirits lurked on days of major
changes, like the day you turn a year older.
On the
contrary, a birthday signifies your beginning and the joy of
life. Every human on earth has been given a chance to
fulfill their own unique mission. A birthday is an important
and momentous occasion not be be understated. It is a time
to celebrate, reflect and give thanks.
Why do we celebrate birthdays with cake?

goddess of the moon. The lit candles on the cake represented
the glow of the moon, and the smoke from the candles carried
their prayers and wishes to the Gods who lived in the skies.
Who was the first person to celebrate a birthday?
The Greeks most likely took the idea of birthday celebration
from the Egyptians, since just like the celebration of the
pharaohs as “gods,” the Greeks were celebrating their gods
and goddesses. 3. Ancient Romans were the first to celebrate
birthdays for the common man (but just the men).
Which birthdays are milestones?

75 so on and so forth.
When did they
start putting candles on birthday cakes?
The round cakes represented the moon, with candles adding
light. Cakes specifically for birthdays (rather than
weddings) originated in 15th century Germa
layer cakes were especially popular for first birthdays. In
the 18th century children's birthday parties called
Kinderfesten became popular.
Do your
birthday wishes come true?
Their belief that smoke from the candles carried prayers to
the gods may have been the origin of making wishes when we
blow out the candles on our birthday cakes. ... However,
whether a wish comes true or not doesn't have anything to do
with birthday candles, shooting stars, or eyelashes.
Sometimes it's just chance.

do you not celebrate your birthday?
While almost all Christians accept the practice today,
Jehovah's Witnesses and some Sacred Name groups refrain from
celebrating birthdays due to the custom's pagan origins, its
connections to magic and superstitions.
What is the birthday bumps?
"The bumps", or "the dumps" in Scotland, a birthday torment
common in countries such as the UK, Ireland, Canada, and
India, involves the friends and family of the person whose
birthday it is taking him or her by the arms and legs, and
"bumping" him/her up into the air and down onto the floor.
