February 1, 2010 The Calvert Marine Museum is planning for the Antique Boat & Marine Engine Show, May 1-2, 2010 as part of the fifth annual Solomons Maritime Festival celebrating Southern Maryland traditions. The show hours are 10 - 5 on Saturday and 10 - 3 on Sunday. In addition to antique boats and engines, some of the activities planned include traditional music, maritime carving, Chesapeake Bay retriever trials, traditional foods, craft demonstrations, and so much more. This year there will also be a nautical yard sale. If you have anything you would like to donate, please bring it along. The schedule of events will be available on our web site, www.calvertmarinemuseum.com. As in the past, the marine engines and vintage boats will be on display in front of the museum and in the parking lot. This year we will set up awnings in the middle of the display area for the convenience of our exhibitors and to act as a focal point. Although there will be no judging, each exhibitor will receive a commemorative plaque of the event. If you would like to participate, please complete the enclosed registration form. There is no registration fee. The event is open to collectors of pre-1975 outboard and inboard engines, antique marine steam engines, and model engines. Antique and classic boats of all kinds can be displayed on trailers or afloat in the museum's boat basin. Please return the registration to me by April 16, 2010. Once it is received I will send a confirmation. If you have any questions regarding registration, please contact me at 410 326- 2042 ext. 19 or email reidsd@co.cal.md.us. For all other questions contact Richard Dodds (ext. 31 or email doddsrj@co.cal.md.us) or Ken Kaumeyer (ext. 33 or email kaumeykr@co.cal.md.us). Your invitation includes a list of local accommodations. We have reserved a block of rooms for Friday and Saturday nights at the Holiday Inn Solomons at the reduced rate of $102 per night. These rooms have been reserved under Maritime Festival until April 16, 2009. When calling for reservations you must give the Holiday Inn this code "MFO." On Saturday evening, all participants are invited to a barbeque in the boat basin at 6:00 p.m. We have managed to hold the cost again to $15 per person. If you wish to join us, please include a check payable to the Calvert Marine Museum with your registration. Once again, we will also offer a free continental breakfast on Sunday morning. Indicate on the registration form if you will be taking advantage of this offer. We look forward to having you as part of this celebration of maritime history. Sincerely,
