SOCIAL EVENTS
Annapolis
is a charming historic town of approximately 35,000 people. It
has a rich history, as it is home to the oldest statehouse still
in legislative use and served briefly as the first peacetime
capitol of the
United States
in the late 1700’s. Annapolis is
also the home of the prestigious US Naval Academy as well as
St. John’s College,
the 3rd oldest college in the
US. There are many historic
sites to explore either on your own or with a guided tour
including the Statehouse, St. Anne’s Church and a plethora of
historic homes, gardens and landmarks located within the city
limits. Annapolis
is located on the shores of the Chesapeake
Bay
which provides a bountiful supply of seafood to satisfy any
seafaring appetite. If it is food you desire, you will find many
quaint restaurants and pubs, steakhouses and seafood hot spots
in the downtown historic district as well as eateries nestled
away in a quiet waterfront cove. Boating abounds with over 3500
miles of navigable waterways for both sail and powerboat
enthusiasts. Nightlife is always plentiful here in
Annapolis, with live music venues,
theaters and pubs providing entertainment every night of the
week. Annapolis is also
conveniently located a mere 30 miles from both Baltimore and
Washington, DC.
An evening
affair is planned for Thursday, June 15, which will allow you to
experience the
Annapolis
lifestyle, a “Chesapeake Feast” of food and entertainment for
your enjoyment. More details on social events will be available
in the near future.
