BLUE ANGELS PLUS MARYLAND FLEET WEEK Baltimore, MD October 12-14, 2016 This October, Baltimore is holding a new event, Maryland Fleet Week, from October 13-19.

2 BLUE ANGELS PLUS MARYLAND FLEET WEEK Baltimore, MD October 12-14, 2016 This October, Baltimore is holding a new event, Maryland Fleet Week, from October As part of that event, the Blue Angels will practice and perform. They will practice from 1-4 pm Thursday, October 13 and Friday, October 14. They will also perform on Saturday, October 15 and Sunday, October 16. Maryland Fleet Week is a free event featuring tours of gray naval vessels from a number of countries and possibly some tall ships. The weekend days will probably be jam packed on land and in the restaurants, as usual for these free events, so I think the best viewing and Baltimore experience will be Wednesday, October 13 and Thursday, October 13. The Patapsco River will be closed to marine traffic before and during the Blue Angels events, so we need to arrive on Wednesday afternoon, October 12 to get there before the harbor is closed. BONUS! The Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race starts at the Bay Bridge, mid day October 12, so we can watch that start on the way to Baltimore While the Inner Harbor East Marina is a great spot, they are under new management and have raised their rates to $3.50/foot for this event. Therefore, I suggest we go to HarborView Marina, on the other side of the harbor, whose rates will be $2.50/foot Wednesday & Thursday, and $3.00/foot Friday, plus $18/day for 30A power. Contact Bill (former manager of Inner Harbor East) or Lisa at for reservations, and mention Corinthians when making reservations. I strongly recommend making reservations now, since they will fill up fast as we get into fall. It s easier to cancel later, with a full refund for cancellations over 48 hours in advance. Please contact John Pasley at or jpasley8@gmail.com for information and to help us know who s coming.
