Richardson Maritime Museum Chair Debbie Usab recently joined Jim Brady on WHCP Radio Mid-Shore Mid-Day to talk about the incredible turnaround happening at the museum.

From where we were just a few years ago to where we are today, a lot has changed, thanks to the hard work and dedication of our board, volunteers, and supporters.

Big changes have been happening at the Richardson Maritime Museum in Cambridge. There's been a transformation, kind of a renaissance for the venerable institution.

Here's what's scheduled on Mid-Shore Midday today, Monday, August 17th:

The Dorchester County Health Department is reaching expectant mothers in an unconventional way; photo shoots, makeovers and personalized gifts. They call it "Beloved", and the goal is to honor, uplift and connect women through a day of wellness, celebration and community care. Sophia Da Silva speaks with program officials and participants.

On Maryland Caucus, The Spy's David Wheelan hosts Len Foxwell and Clay Mitchell to talk about extending a new Bay Bridge and the problems it faces and the problems it will cure.

Jim Brady talks with the Richardson Maritime Museum's leader, Debbie Usab, about the transformation of the organization in just the last few years, and its aim to become more than a destination in Cambridge and Dorchester County.

Dorchester County has 95 percent of Maryland's Berm Infiltration Ponds - BIP ponds - where wastewater from homes in rural areas is supposed to decompose, evaporate and return to nature. However, the ponds have been failing. County Council President Lenny Pfeffer and a resident who had a BIP pond - Cliff Rossi - recount the unpleasant discovery of failed ponds and the scramble by local and state government, along with the home owners, to remedy the situation.
