On January 29, 2009, Maryland’s Board of Public Works—Governor Martin O’Malley, Comptroller Peter Franchot, and Treasurer Nancy Kopp—unanimously approved the use of Program Open Space funds to preserve some of the state’s most historic lands, which Captain John Smith mapped and explored during his voyages of discovery in 1608. Located in Cecil, Charles, and St. Mary’s counties, these lands comprise nearly 4,500 acres and 20 miles of Potomac River waterfront, offering access and recreational and educational opportunities along the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail.
