Let Your Voice Be Heard

You are a subscriber so you obviously have (at minimum) a passing interest in Annapolis. One of the critical issues facing out area in the coming decades is flooding.


City Dock floods many times each year in what is termed "nuisance" flooding, and we got a taste of it in September 2003 when TS Isabel roared into town. It will only get worse and we need to do something.


We have gem in Annapolis and we need to make sure it is preserved for centuries. Local, State, and Federal governments have teamed up with organizations and experts to address the issue and now it is time for YOUR INPUT.


Find out what you can do on January 30th at the Key Auditorium at St. John's College!


This is such a huge issue for everyone--we need to be prepared. 

​So, let's listen to the experts.


See you there!
