OUR MESSAGE

Personally, fall is my favorite season. While this summer has been pretty mild, for me there is nothing like a change of colors and a crispness to the air in Maryland. And for me, the first sign of fall is the smell of crabs wafting from Sandy Point State Park!  The Maryland Seafood Festival is here September 12th and 13th to bring us all the celebrations of the Chesapeake Bay!

They have been at it for 48 years and it keeps getting better and better each year.
