Maryland’s Story is America’s Story
In anticipation of America’s 250th anniversary, Maryland is opening the pages of some of its most iconic accomplishments, from the oyster farms of the Chesapeake Bay to the mountain peaks out west. Beyond the legends everyone knows, they wanted to explore stories of everyday Marylanders who served their country and helped democracy prosper through civic engagement. The MD250 site commemorates that deep and meaningful contribution to America’s past, present, and future by retracing Maryland’s illustrious history.
