Councilmember Craig Rice celebrates the Chesapeake Bay

Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week was earlier this month, but to County Councilmember Craig Rice, we should be celebrating the Bay and our local waters all year long.  Recently, the Councilmember took a trip to Black Hills Regional Park with his daughter. They went fishing and boating.

At the park you can visit Little Seneca Creek, which connects to Seneca Creek, which connects to the Potomac River and then, you guessed it, the Chesapeake Bay!

Watch the Councilmember discuss the Bay and the County’s water protection programs with Department of Environmental Protection Director Lisa Feldt on Montgomery al Dia:
