The eighth annual Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week will take place from June 3-11, 2023. While this week is officially designated in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, events will take place throughout the entire watershed to raise awareness about this valuable economic and environmental resource—a national treasure that directly connects over 18 million residents.
