Annapolis Town Center Hosts Fundraiser For Tornado Relief Efforts
Just a week has passed since the devastating tornado from Hurricane Ida touched down on Annapolis. Powerful and destructive, the storm ripped through parts of Annapolis and Anne Arundel County. Damaging businesses and homes, knocking down trees, and littering the streets with debris. As clean up begins, Annapolis Town Center commits to hosting a fundraiser in an effort to help the county recoup.
On October 10, the Town Center will host an outdoor concert experience where proceeds from the event will support community members impacted by the hurricane.
“It was terrible to see the destruction left by Ida,” said Anthony Henry, General Manager of Annapolis Town Center. “We hope this event will encourage the community to gather for an enjoyable evening while also helping to raise funds for those in need.”
This event titled, “Night Out on the Town”, will be held from 4:00 - 8:00 pm and features the East Coast’s original 80’s band The Reagan Years, Danah Denice, and DJ Manjo from JAGMAC. Attendees can purchase concert-only tickets for $25 or opt-in for an additional silent disco experience. The combo ticket costs $30 and ticket holders can choose from three different silent disco time slots throughout the night. All ticketed guests will receive entry to the event, the musical experience of their choice, and access to a variety of food and beverages offered by Vintage Views: A Wandering Bar and additional local food trucks. Tickets will be on sale next week.
Maryland Dove tours offered in October
On Thursdays next month, the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum is offering the public a chance to go behind the fences of its working Shipyard for an immersive small group tour of the Maryland Dove build project.
Scheduled for 3pm on Thursdays Oct. 7, 14, 21, & 28, the 45-minute tours will provide an up-close look at what it takes to build a historic maritime vessel in modern times. Led by CBMM’s shipwrights, each tour will give guests a more personal experience with its construction of Maryland Dove, a reproduction of the vessel that accompanied the first European settlers to Maryland in 1634. Slated for completion in 2022, the iconic ship is owned by the state of Maryland and operated and maintained by Historic St. Mary’s City.
The cost to participate is $15 per person, with a 20% discount offered to CBMM members and registration required to cbmm.org/shipyardprograms. Please note: CBMM’s working Shipyard is an active construction site; all participants are expected to wear closed toed, supportive shoes.
