The nonprofit Chesapeake Bay Foundation has seen state funding for its outdoor education programming dry up.
According to a statement from the foundation, this means a loss of roughly $440,000 that would have gone to environmental education activities.
Will Baker, foundation president, told lawmakers in Annapolis this week that he and the board were shocked by the decision from Gov. Lawrence J. Hogan’s administration to cut fiscal 2021 funding.
“We had no notice of this. We had no discussion — nothing,” Baker said.
