History of the Chamber

30 years of supporting local business

In the 1920s, chambers of commerce were established to serve as economic development entities, helping businesses grow, supporting an educated workforce, establishing practices for workforce development, and steering business-friendly legislation.

The Cecil County Chamber of Commerce began as a subsidiary of the New Castle County Chamber in Delaware. It was formed primarily as an outlet for the New Castle Chamber’s insurance sales program in Maryland.

In 1987, the Board of Directors of the Cecil County Chamber voted to declare independence from the New Castle County Chamber, and a part-time Executive Director was hired. On January 1, 1988, the Cecil County Chamber became a completely autonomous entity.

Through the efforts of several influential Cecil County citizens, a capital campaign was organized. Approximately $30,000 was donated by local government and businesses. These monies, along with the charter members’ initial dues investments, enabled the Chamber to survive for the first couple of years, while becoming established and developing its own programs and fundraising activities.

Today the Chamber’s membership is slightly above 400. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of no more than 15 member business representatives. The President/CEO and two full time employees perform the day-to-day responsibilities. In January 2017, the Chamber moved to its current location at 216 E. Pulaski Highway (Route 40), in Elkton.

Cecil County’s local business community has needs and interests similar to those who were served by the very first chambers of commerce nearly a century ago. The Board, staff and volunteers of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce are committed to meeting those needs and helping our member businesses grow and prosper.

Cecil County’s well-developed transportation system offers easy access via land, rail and water.

CECIL COUNTY GOVERNMENT

Dynamic, Efficient, Responsive

On November 2, 2010, the citizens of Cecil County voted to switch to a charter form of government. This allowed them to establish a more dynamic, efficient, and responsive form of county government and empowered them to exercise greater local authority to govern. Charter government allows for the separation of the executive and legislative branches. Both the County Executive and County Council serve four-year terms. Cecil County’s first County Executive was elected on November 6, 2012. The Council is comprised of five county residents who reside in their respective districts and are elected at large by the Cecil County voters. The Council members choose a President and Vice President from among their members.

The General Fund budget for Cecil County for fiscal year 2018 was adopted at $189.7 million. Property taxes account for 60 percent of the County’s revenues, while 32 percent comes from local income taxes.

Budgeted expenses for fiscal 2018 include $123.2 million (65 percent of the total budget) for transfers and intergovernmental expenditures, and $42.4 million (22 percent) for salaries and fringe benefits. The County budget also supports the community’s high quality of life through outstanding citizen services programs, over 200 miles of shoreline, and 15,000 acres of parkland.

Enterprise Zones

Enterprise zones provide tax incentives to both property and business owners, and are an important economic development tool used to recruit businesses. The Cecil County Enterprise Zone was expanded in 2017 to incorporate the former Perryville Outlet Center, and in 2015 by over 1,000 acres to include the former Bainbridge Naval Training Center and the Town of Port Deposit. In the last five years, nearly $200 million in capital investment was made in the County’s Enterprise Zone.

OUR TOWNS

Eclectic Charm, Scenic Beauty, Rich History

Cecilton

Cecilton owes its existence to August Herman, an immigrant to America in 1633 and subject of heroic legend. He was the builder and first Lord of Bohemia Manor. Herman made several attempts to establish a town named for his friend Cecilius Calvert in lower Cecil County, but, uncharacteristically, he was not successful. Several generations later, a descendant again took up the task and founded a town that survived. That was Cecilton, incorporated in 1864. Located between the Bohemia and Sassafras Rivers, which attract a great deal of seasonal tourism to the town, it is centered at the largest crossroads south of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal. Cecilton is the hub of community, public facilities and services offered in lower Cecil County. The town continues to provide a hometown look and feel even though it is within close proximity to a growing region. Individuals can enjoy services, benefits and amenities of traditional urban services, but in the middle of the beauty, peacefulness and quiet countryside of rural life. The town is surrounded by farmland that is an important component of its history and economy, much of which has been placed in agricultural preservation programs, ensuring that the town will maintain its rural character. Cecilton is a small town offering something for everyone, with

a strong commitment to preserving a high quality of life in a quiet residential community that is without a doubt “The Way Life Should Be.”

Located where the North East River meets the Chesapeake Bay, Charlestown was an active shipping center in its early days. In 1742 the colonial village became the first incorporated town in Cecil County, and briefly served as the County seat. Although today Charlestown is peaceful and primarily residential, you’ll also find marinas, growing businesses, several restored colonial structures, and a wharf that’s quite a popular place to cast a line and catch a fish.

Chesapeake City

Once known as the “Village of Bohemia,” Chesapeake City was incorporated in 1839 shortly after the construction and opening of the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal. Today it is the only town in Maryland situated on a working commercial canal. Most of its interesting 19th-century architecture remains intact, and the historic area on the south bank is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Chesapeake City is a destination town widely known for its unique inland view of oceangoing vessels, proudly preserved and displayed reminders of its history, and friendly hospitality.

Travelers discover fine dining, picturesque stores, art galleries, outdoor concerts, seasonal events, bed

& breakfasts, hiking/bicycling trails, and an outstanding museum showcasing the history of the Canal. From its origin as a rough and rowdy boomtown, through an era of dispiriting depression, Chesapeake City has emerged as a charming and interesting place to live and visit. Chesapeake City is truly the “Hidden Treasure of the Chesapeake”.

Elkton

Elkton is located on the colonial highway of America. Our country’s forefathers navigated its waterways and traveled its roads when heading north to Philadelphia, or south to Virginia. Once known as Head of Elk named by Captain John Smith, it sits at the northern headwaters of the Chesapeake Bay. Elkton played a significant role in both the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. Many of the town’s beautiful colonial structures remain today, surrounded by buildings that reflect an active business community. The once infamous “marriage capital” has developed into a thriving economic arena for service and retail industries, several large manufacturers, and Union Hospital. Office buildings, courthouses, the hospital, and retail establishments share space with history in Elkton, which has been the County seat since 1787.

Elkton is proud to represent Cecil County with Maryland Main Street and Arts and Entertainment District designations.

North East

The North East River played a significant role in the early years of this town. Mills were built along its shores, farms prospered, and local fishermen found the area to be rich in stock. One of its churches, St. Mary Anne’s Episcopal Church, dates back to the early 1700s, and has one of the oldest graveyards in the state. Today the neighborly town enjoys a charming renovation and is a tourist destination for visitors who like regional foods, boating, history, and antiques and collectibles shopping. A few miles south of town is Elk Neck State Park, surrounded on three sides by water with a breathtaking view next to the Turkey Point Light House.

Perryville

Along the banks of the Susquehanna River lies the Town of Perryville. An area steeped in history, Perryville boasts Rodgers Tavern, which was frequented by General George Washington in his travels from VA to NY, and the Principio Iron Works, which were destroyed by the British during the War of 1812. Perryville is also a railroad town; the Perryville Train Station (built in 1905) provides MARC services to points south, including Baltimore City and Washington, D.C. Today’s Perryville honors its past while embracing its future. Other area highlights include the Principio Mansion, waterfront communities, two waterfront community parks, travel plaza, Lower Ferry Park, golf course, multiple biking and hiking trails and Maryland’s first casino.

Port Deposit

Historic Port Deposit is nestled between granite cliffs and the banks of the Susquehanna River. The tiny village was a place where men made fortunes in granite quarrying and shipping sellable goods on arks and rafts from the “port of deposit” on the waterfront. Fishing was also a big industry with a plentiful supply of shad and rockfish. Port Deposit is a well-preserved, historic, mid-nineteenth century, industrial town, and the architecture is evidence of the artistry and craftsmanship of the period. The commercial waterfront has been replaced with a vibrant residential community, Marina Park, and a new Visitor Center in the restored historic Jacob Tome Gas House that includes a Northern Map Turtle habitat and education center. Come to our town to enjoy boating, fishing, a stroll along the scenic waterfront promenade, and step back in time along historic Main Street to visit our great restaurants and shops.

Visitor Center and Turtle Habitat

Rising Sun

Rising Sun got its unique name from an old tavern located in the center of town in the 1700s that had a sign with a picture of a sunrise. Since this was a popular watering hole located at a point where five wagon trails all came together, many travelers and frontiersman were known to say, “We’ll meet at the Rising Sun,” and so the name of the town was established. A little known fact, its beautiful rolling hills and landscape were originally part of the Nottingham Lots of Pennsylvania, and were part of a land dispute between William Penn of Pennsylvania and the Proprietary Governor of Maryland, Charles Calvert, 5th Baron of Baltimore. This border conflict waged for years and was actually known as Cresap’s War. When the Mason-Dixon Line was established and a new boundary line between Maryland and Pennsylvania was created, Rising Sun was officially made part of Cecil County, Maryland.

AGRICULTURE

Agriculture is at the core of Cecil County’s rural heritage and quality of life.

Cecil County comprises 222,824 acres, approximately 35% of which is farmland. The working landscapes are devoted mainly to cash grain crops – corn, soybeans, wheat, hay and barley. Other rural land uses include tree fruits, apples, peaches, pears, table grapes and berries, plant nurseries and vegetables.

Year-round vegetable growing is now possible with the use of high tunnels, also known as hoop barns. You may join a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) operation which allows you to select your fresh products weekly whatever the season. Traditional U-Pick operations, roadside stands and farmers markets offer fresh picked, seasonal fruits and vegetables.

Warwick Mushroom Farm, the largest operation on one site with almost a half-million square feet under roof, uses the most modern growing technology on their farm in southern Cecil County.

Our climate is great for growing plants and trees, and several large wholesale nurseries transport their products from Maine to Miami and the mid-west, and are even transporting certain plants west to California.

Horses are big business in Maryland and Cecil County is home to equine operations of all sizes, including the Fair Hill Training Center, the most innovative Thoroughbred training center in Maryland; Select Breeders Services International Headquarters, Hassler Dressage’s worldclass facility at Riveredge, Winbak Farm - the largest Standardbred operation in North America, Northview Stallion Station – a renown Thoroughbred operation, as well as the backyard pasture with individual pleasure riding horses.

Diversification of traditional farming in Cecil County, now includes vineyards and wineries, pub breweries and distilleries, fresh milk home-delivered in glass bottles, produce available year-round and free-range meats, poultry and eggs – all available from your local farmer / grower / producer.

HISTORY

By Land and By Sea

Cecil County is steeped in American history, and has many historic sites and districts, churches and museums. American Indians were the earliest inhabitants. “White men” arrived by ship in the early 1600s as part of an expedition led by one of Cecil’s most famous visitors - Captain John Smith. He and his men explored the rivers and met the native American residents living along their shorelines. Because of Cecil’s strategic location at the headwaters of the Chesapeake Bay, it became a bustling transportation route during the colonial era. Wares and travelers, including famous founding fathers, arrived at and departed from its ports, and traveled by horse drawn wagons along the county’s dusty roads.

In the early 19th century, less than one year after President James Madison persuaded Congress to embark on a second war with England, the British blockaded the Chesapeake Bay and sailed up the Elk River. It was April of 1813. They traveled the Elk, North East, and Sassafras Rivers and burned waterfront houses and buildings of commerce at Frenchtown, Fredericktown, and Principio Furnace. Due to the action and bravery of local citizens, the British were unable to reach the county seat of Elkton, thus could not burn the town. They considered setting their sights on Port Deposit along the Susquehanna River, but reconsidered.

During the Civil War, Cecil became a border county in a border state, with some citizens supporting the Union, and others the Confederacy. No battles took place in this part of Maryland, but there were notable people and happenings. What is now the Town of Perryville became a staging area for Union troops and supplies as well as the site of a “Mule School” which readied the animals for troop transport and war. Snow’s Battery was one of the county’s notable Civil War units from Port Deposit, which battled alongside Union forces at Antietam. Many Cecil County men left their homes and families to fight on both sides, with and against family and neighbors.

A drive through Cecil County today will take visitors past exquisite manor homes, 18th century churches, and covered bridges. Roadside historic markers tout the area’s history including inns, taverns, and plantations where folks like Lafayette and Washington hung their hats. Travelers can visit the C&D Canal Museum, or Mount Harmon - a tobacco plantation south of Cecilton. They can tour Upper Bay Museum, or Sinking Springs Herb Farm where a sycamore tree that sprouted in the 1500s spreads its shade over an 18th Century log farmhouse.

HISTORY

Continued from previous page

Rodgers Tavern stands on the east bank of the Susquehanna River in Perryville. The tavern is a monument to our country’s early history and a reminder of a past way of life in Cecil County. Built in the early eighteenth century, the tavern was known first as the Ferry House or Stevenson’s Tavern and was located next to a ferry established in 1695.

The Rodgers family was actively involved in supporting the American cause during the Revolutionary War. In 1775, John Rodgers raised and commanded a company of militia for the defense of Maryland. Because of the Tavern’s strategic location on the main thoroughfare, and the owner’s patriotic tendencies, it was a favorite stopping place for such Revolutionary figures as George Washington, Lafayette, and Rochambeau.

Other distinguished visitors included Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. Just one year after John Rodgers bought the tavern, in 1781, Washington brought officers and troops through the Lower Ferry Crossing on his way to his victorious campaign against Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virginia.

The Tome School for Boys, originally located on Main Street in Port Deposit, Maryland was founded by Jacob Tome as a nonsectarian college preparatory school for boys. It opened for boarders and received its first students in 1894. It was part of a system of schools that began with kindergarten and extended through high school that was collectively known as the Jacob Tome Institute. The Tome School is significant in military history as the location of the Naval Academy Preparatory School (NAPS) from 1943 to 1974, excepting the years 1949 to 1951. The NAPS, the third oldest school in the U.S. Navy after the Naval Academy and the Naval War College, prepares enlisted candidates in the Navy and Marine Corps for admission to the Naval Academy. The NAPS was located in the Tome School buildings for a total of 29 years covering a period of three major wars, during which the school played a continuing role in providing naval leadership for those conflicts.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

The Tome School

The Tome School sets high standards in academics and personal behavior with a rigorous academic program and a dedicated, caring faculty that helps students reach their potential and acquire the skills that they will need to lead successful lives.

“Tome is unique,” said head of school Christine Szymanski. “We put a big emphasis on respect, personal responsibility, and academic rigor. We talk about doing things the ‘Tome Way.’”

The ‘Tome Way’ has always been to provide a top-quality education to students at an affordable cost—that was what Jacob Tome envisioned when he founded the school in 1889. Jacob Tome, a banker, politician, and philanthropist, built one of the largest fortunes in the U.S. at the time while he was living in Cecil County. He wanted to create a school in the area that would offer the finest education for students willing to undergo its challenging regimen, regardless of their families’ ability to pay the cost for that education.

With its long tradition of excellence, the Tome School continues to be true to that mission today, focusing on academics, character, and community. The school educates approximately 455 K-12 students each year.

With small class sizes—the maximum number of students is 14 in kindergarten, 20 in grades 1-8, and 25 in grades 9-12—the faculty members offer the personal attention that students need.

Tome graduates are well-prepared for the future. In two recent graduating classes, the school’s seniors exceeded the state average SAT scores in reading, math, and writing by more than 100 points. When a graduate of The Tome School arrives on a college campus, he or she is typically ready for the new academic challenge.

“We are very academically driven,” explained Szymanski. “So when students get to their next schools, they are very well-prepared.”

Tome School keeps tuition significantly lower than other independent schools, partly because of the substantial funding from The Jacob Tome Institute and partly because of parental assistance. Volunteer efforts by Tome families help keep tuition increases to a minimum.

The Tome School is proud to be a part of the Cecil County Community, and has been an active member of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce for 30 years.

The Tome School is located at 581 S. Maryland Avenue in North East, Maryland. The telephone number is 410-2872050. For more information, visit www.tomeschool.org.

Dwight and David Thomey: Long-time contributors to the Chamber of Commerce and the community

You might say that brothers Dwight and David Thomey have been weavers of the county’s community fabric for several years, and their many local associations certainly prove it.

“The benefit of membership in the Chamber is being able to participate with other businesspeople in making the community we all live in a better place.”

David Thomey

David, who served as president of the Cecil County County Chamber of Commerce in 1989 and 1990, is the past executive vice president of Maryland Materials, Inc., and is currently a consultant for Bluegrass Materials, who purchased Maryland Materials, Inc. in 2014. He has also been affiliated with the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association, the Maryland Aggregates Association Inc., and the Harford Community Action Agency, Inc.

“To me, being a member of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce has given me the chance to meet – and learn from – some of the really good businesspeople in our community,” David said. “It’s always been about education, watching the best practices of our community’s leaders at work, and then seeing how we can learn from those best practices to make our practices better.

“The benefit of membership in the Chamber is being able to participate with other businesspeople in making the community we all live in a better place.”

Dwight Thomey

A principal in the law firm of Baker, Thomey & Emrey, Dwight represents everyone from families and individuals to businesses and corporations throughout all of Cecil County, as well as clients in nearby counties. He served as the president of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce in 1997, and returned to the Chamber Board in 2013 for another three-year term. He is now serving an additional three-year term that expires in June 2019. Dwight has also served with the Cecil County Board of Education, the Union Hospital Board and the Maryland Association of Boards of Education Self Insurance Pool.

David Thomey President of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce, 1989 & 1990 Baker, Thomey & Emrey 153 E. Main Street Elkton, MD 21921 410-398-3536 www.cecillawfirm.com

“I have enjoyed being a member of the Chamber, because it has allowed me to meet and interact with those in the Chamber and get to know the work they do,” Dwight said. “Like so many other nonprofit associations and groups I have been involved with, the Chamber continues to help get my name into the Cecil County community.”
