O Conor Favors Park At Matapeake Slip
Gov. Herbert R. O Conor said he favors establishing a small state owned bay side park at or near Matapeake on Kent Island. He will urge a soon appointed committee to study an 80 acre state land parcel at the Eastern Shore terminus of the Sandy Point Matapeake ferry for a park. The site offers woods and easy access for Western and Eastern shores, with potential picnicking and swimming during ferry wait times. He noted traffic jams may occur even with a new ferry. The state owns the land and additional acquisitions, if needed, would not be prohibitive.
