Bog Turtle Brewery, Cecil County<\/strong>. The governor\u2019s first stop was at Bog Turtle Brewery in Rising Sun. Bog Turtle Brewery is a recipient of\u00a0Project Restore<\/a>\u00a0funding, a successful economic recovery initiative that provides financial incentives for small businesses and commercial developers to revitalize vacant retail and commercial space. This funding is helping Bog Turtle Brewery expand its facilities to a nearby property where they will be able to grow their services. More than 350 businesses have received Project Restore grants across the state, and last month the governor\u00a0announced<\/a>\u00a0a second round of applications.<\/p>\n

MACo Summer Conference.<\/strong>\u00a0Tonight in Ocean City, Governor Hogan will hold a Thank You Event at Seacrets with conference attendees and invited guests, before addressing the conference\u2019s opening session tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n
