If there’s one thing that the town of Annapolis is known for, it’s sailing. That may be why the National Sailing Hall of Fame has made a home at the docks for the last 10 years. Among its many events promoting sailing and sailboats each year, for the last 9, the Hall of Fame has [...]
This weekend, Annapolis will be overwhelmed by fall festivals (and an Italian festival, an African heritage festival and a beer/wine fest in the park), so when you're not cheering on the Navy at the women's volleyball and soccer games against American University, you can make your way down to whatever ongoing festival matches your mood [...]
We made it through Hurricane Florence with little more than some flooding downtown, and even the Ren Fest in Revel Grove stayed open throughout the weekend.

Time to hit the beach. Maybe head to Ocean City for the weekend, or at the very least, spend a few hours at Sandy [...]
If you're still recovering from all the excitement of last week, we don't blame you. The day-long "Annapolis Rising" benefit concert on Saturday was a hit, and Annapolis mayor Gavin Buckley assured concert-goers that there will be more events like it in the future: "What would be sad for me would be if we forget," [...]
