Dr. Jennifer R. Jewell
Snow Hill Mayor
Welcome from the Mayor
Welcome to the Town of Snow Hill, a community rich in diversity, history, and opportunity. As Mayor, it is my honor to serve our community. Snow Hill is an idyllic home and destination in so many ways. Between canoeing and birding on the Pocomoke River, a growing downtown arts and culture scene, and history lessons found in the Purnell Museum, Snow Hill has something to offer everyone. For our residents, our family-oriented community and our exceptional Blue-Ribbon schools contribute to our high quality of life.
Numerous projects throughout the town and along the River, including the new Black-Eyed Susan Riverboat, all point to an even brighter future for Snow Hill. If you are already a part of our community, thank you. If you are visiting Snow Hill or considering relocating your home or business to Snow Hill, I want to welcome you! You will not be disappointed!
