Trail Superintendent Named!
The Director of the National Park Service, Mary Bomar, named John Maounis Trail Superintendent for the newly-established Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail.

The NPS may now initiate preparation of a Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP). The release of the CMP will include a public scoping process to solicit comments and encourage public participation associated with implementation of the trail.
Vice President Remarks on Trail
Vice President Cheney gives speech to a Joint Session of the Virginia General Assembly at Jamestown Memorial Church in Jamestown, expressing enthusiasm for America's first all-water National Historic Trail.
President Bush Signs Trail Legislation
On December 19, 2006, President Bush signed legislation to establish the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail. The President's action came on an important date in American history - the 400th anniversary of the Jamestown settlers' departure from England to North America. Signature by the President followed passage by the U.S. House and U.S. Senate and marks the final requirement to establish the trail.
