On Sunday, August 11, 2019, the 10th annual Watermen’s Appreciation Day comes to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, Md., featuring a spirited boat docking contest, steamed crabs and other regional food, live music, beer, boat rides, family activities, and more. The fundraising event is organized by CBMM in cooperation with the Talbot Watermen Association, with proceeds benefiting both organizations.
IMPORTANT: Coming to Watermen’s Day by boat? All spectator boats wishing to view the competition from the water MUST remain outside the buoyed channel–the US Coast Guard will be on the water to enforce this. Thank you.
For safety reasons, non-service dogs need to be kept home during CBMM festivals, including Watermen’s Appreciation Day. Leashed dogs are only permitted on CBMM’s campus during regular operating hours. Carry-on alcohol from dock or land is strictly prohibited.
