Iraq War Veteran Conowingo Dam Sailing

Home Again
Iraq War veterans who have been badly wounded in action many times come home to find that they can no longer pursue one of the things they love most – hunting. Now, thanks to a new program, these handicapped vets are able to once again enjoy the outdoors in ways they remember.

 

250 Million Tons of It
There is 250 million tons of silt and sludge piled up behind Conowingo Dam, pushed toward the bay by the mighty Susquehanna River. Scientists are measuring its threat to the Chesapeake Bay and are exploring ways of eliminating it.

 

Race Against Limits
People with handicaps take to the water at Baltimore's Downtown Sailing Center to experience the thrill and allure of sailing.
