The area surrounding the Chesapeake Bay has a distinct visual appeal that is centered on the iconic images of the Bay, its people, and the incredibly diverse bounty of both the water and land. From the arch of the Bay Bridge rising over the Chesapeake to the Ward Brothers in their workshop, this exhibit features historical pictures that have shaped the wider understanding of the Chesapeake. Paired with the historical images, contemporary photographers will display works that feature the Chesapeake through both cultural and environmental perspectives, offering a powerful sense of where we have been and where we are.

Jesse Garron’s Tribute to Elvis Dinner Theater will be held Saturday, April 20, at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center. Enjoy the performance by Garron -- "The Closest Thing to the King" -- along with dinner.

Dinner begins at 5 p.m., with the show following at 6:45 p.m. The deadline to purchase tickets for dinner and a show is Thursday, April 18, at noon.

Carvers and visitors from across the world convene for the most prestigious competition of contemporary wildfowl art. The event includes judging, benefit auction, classes, seminars, demonstrations, children’s activities and exhibitor booths of artisans and supplies.

Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay will be honoring Melodie Carter, Vice President of Business Development at Hebron Savings Bank as the 2019 Lower Shore Woman of Distinction. The Event Co-chairs are Susan Purnell and Ashley Bosche. 

Each year the event celebrates a woman who has made a difference in her community, inspired others, and provided a positive role model for girls and women. The event also provides an excellent educational and leadership development opportunity for teen Girl Scouts to learn important presentation and networking skills as they interact with local business leaders.

Sponsorship opportunities are available and all funds raised will support local Girl Scout Leadership Programs.
