Life Before NAS PAX
The Bay Net

“Life Before NAS Pax” will be the subject when the Patuxent River Naval Air Museum Foundation kicks off its quarterly speaker series on Sunday, Sept. 26, 4-5 p.m. at the museum.

The Patuxent River Naval Air Station is the leading economic engine of Southern Maryland, with more than 20,000 military and civilian employees. Its impact on the area’s growth has been incalculable.

There was a time, however, before the air station even existed, when Southern Maryland was a ru-ral community. Farming, particularly of tobacco, was the leading occupation. It was a time when numerous farm buildings, an auto dealership, two churches, the town of Pearson and a summer colony existed on what is now NAS Patuxent River.
