Distinguished by upland forest and open meadows, protection of the three Old  Bohemia parcels totaling 975+ acres located north of Route 282 near Warwick in Cecil County would create excellent recreational opportunities.

The property was part of the first Catholic establishment on the Eastern Shore. The property’s features would make it a suitable future wildlife management area.
