WHAT: Hundreds of Exelon and State of Maryland employees, family, friends and community members are gathering for a day of service to remove trash and debris along the Chesapeake Bay. Visuals of volunteers doing clean-up activities in bright t-shirts and interviews with Exelon executives will be available. The event will be held rain or shine.
WHY: Thousands of Exelon employees live on or near the Chesapeake Bay, and we are committed to preserving this national treasure -- and Maryland’s most important natural resource -- for future generations. Similarly, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan has called on state residents and employees in the region to join the cause. The day’s events are part of Hogan’s statewide “day to serve” initiative, with a national focus this year on shoreline beautification and conservation.
