The article says the peninsula was "Formed by the Magothy River.." which is unsourced and doesn't seem correct. If I remember my geology of the Chesapeake region correctly, it was formed by glaciation during the last ice age. Either way, it needs a citation.

I don't know what is common usage among residents, but looking at a map it looks like Severna Park is geographically part of the peninsula. Any thoughts?--[[User:Bardobro|Bardobro]] ([[User talk:Bardobro|talk]]) 18:39, 11 October 2012 (UTC) |

The article says the peninsula was "Formed by the Magothy River.." which is unsourced and doesn't seem correct. If I remember my geology of the Chesapeake region correctly, it was formed by glaciation during the last ice age. Either way, it needs a citation. Toddst1 (talk) 19:00, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
