Memorial Day is Monday, May 29, and is meant to observe all soldiers who have died while serving. It’s observed as a Federal Holiday, meaning many people will have time off from work and school. The day is often considered to be the unofficial start of Summer, when beaches start to see visitors and boardwalks and pools open up. If you’re looking for a new place to explore over the long weekend, we’ve curated a list of destinations not too far from your home here at The Promenade:
Beaches
Catch some rays at these nearby beaches:
Rehoboth Beach
Delaware’s very own Rehoboth Beach is a top destination for fun at about 125 miles away. Check out Funland during the day, then check out one of the several restaurants along the boardwalk at night. Looking for a thrill? Be sure top check out Jungle Jim’s or Midway Speedway Park. Or simply enjoy relaxing and laying on the beach!
Cape Charles Beach
At 210 miles away lies Cape Charles Beach, sitting at the very tip of the Delmarva peninsula, in Virginia. Along with the free public beach, there are waterparks, aquariums, state parks, and much much more to visit in the area. Cape Charles Beach also has the largest congregation of historical buildings on the east coast, so check some historic sites while you’re around
OCMD
Also on the Delmarva Peninsula is Ocean City, Maryland, about a 150 mile drive away. With a nice calming beach, there’s a wide array of restaurants and entertainment, as well as the nearby boardwalk. Each district has its own experience, so check out which one fits the tune of your desired visit!
Quaint Towns
Explore everything these nearby towns have to offer.
Lancaster
If you’ve ever wanted to check out the Amish country, then now is the perfect time to make the 85 mile trip to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. America’s oldest Amish settlement is the perfect place to take a peek at the life our ancestors lived, riding in horse-drawn carriages and going on their Unique Amish Immersion Experience tour. Once you’ve finished checking out Amish country, be sure to head into downtown Lancaster for elevated fare and unique breweries.
Berkeley Springs
Known as America’s first spa, Berkeley Springs in West Virginia is one of the places to be this Summer, just over 100 miles away. This relaxation destination is filled with culture, food, several shops, and many more activities like horseback riding.
Adventure Awaits
Deep Creek Lake
Deep Creek, Maryland is under a 50 mile drive away, just Northwest of Baltimore. Here, you can explore the mountains, lake, and wilderness, as well as check out different attractions in the area.
Harpers Ferry
The last destination on our list is Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, located just 70 miles away in Maryland. Here, explore the history and nature of the site that sparked the Civil War. Tour the historical sites and museums, take hikes in the Appalachian mountains, go whitewater rafting, and bask in the history of this town.
Enjoy Your Weekend
With summer finally just around the corner, opportunities to explore the world around us become easier to access. We hope that with any newfound freetime you may have, you find something fun to do from this list.

Go Planet; it’s your Earth Day!
That’s right, Mother Earth’s birthday falls on Saturday, April 22nd. Do you know the origin of Earth Day?
The History of Earth (Day)
Earth Day originated in 1970 from the environmental movements surrounding air pollution, freeway constructions, water pollution, and the concern for all living organisms. Earth Day became a global celebration in 1990, with over 1 billion annual celebrators. Today, individuals are raising awareness of climate change, pollutants, and the loss of wildlife through movements, strikes, social media, and Earth Day celebrations.
Here’s how you can take part and honor Earth Day in Baltimore:
Get Floral
Earth Day is better with plants and flowers.
Belvedere Square Market is hosting their annual Earth Day at the Square on Saturday, April 22nd. From 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., the Square will have local food and drink vendors and live music from a violinist. If you spend $15 at the Square, you can receive a complimentary floral arrangement from their pop-up Flower Bar.
The Federal Hill ACE Hardware store is throwing its Annual Garden Party. On April 22nd and April 23rd, plants, pottery, potting services, and tools are 20% off. Spruce up your apartment home and become a plant parent; all of us could breathe a little better with the help of an indoor plant.
B.Willow is holding an Earth Day Market on Saturday, April 22nd, at 11:00 a.m. They will be joined by local vendors, not-for-profits, and the Baltimore Tree Trust. Stop by, purchase a plant (or two), and see what the community has to offer.
Happy BEARTHday!
Spend the Earth’s birthday volunteering.
Patterson Park is holding its Earth Day Extravaganza on Saturday, April 22nd, from 9:00 a.m. until noon. It’s the perfect opportunity to volunteer and beautify a local park by picking up trash, planting new trees, gardening, and edging walkways. Sign up here to volunteer. (P.S. There will be free coffee!)
The Canton Community Association (CCA) is hosting an Earth Day Community CleanUp & Swap from 10:00 a.m. until noon in O’Donnell Park. It would mean the world to the Earth if you volunteered or helped garden on Saturday, April 22nd.
Do Something Special on Earth Day
It’s a celebration, after all!
Earth Day is coincidentally Mr. Trash Wheel’s Birthday! Celebrate Mr. Trash Wheel’s Earth Day Birthday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m on Saturday, April 22nd in the Inner Harbor. Patrons will meet reptiles and pythons, enjoy desserts, and see performances from the Trash Wheel himself.
May the Forest be With You
During these Earth Day inspired workouts.
Motion Collective on the Avenue is hosting an Earth Day Yoga Session at the Druid Hill Zen Park Garden on Saturday, April 22nd, from 10:00 a.m. until noon. For $22, this yoga session will ground participants to the Earth with an all-levels yoga flow. 10% of all proceeds will go toward Baltimore City parks.
The Canton Waterfront Park is hosting a Hands-On HIIT Earth Day Cleanup on Sunday, April 23rd. At 11:00 a.m., there will be a guided HIIT workout routine, followed by a one-hour trash pick-up, and happy hour at Raw & Refined.
Happy Earth Day!
We hope you take this Earth Day as an opportunity to give back to our planet.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Promenade!
Whether you love or hate this holiday, we must admit that Valentine’s Day goes way back, and no, it hasn’t always been about chocolates and flowers.
Playing Heart To Get?
Valentine’s Day originated from the Roman holiday, Lupercalia, which commemorated fertility; however, some historians speculate that Valentine’s Day began in Ancient Greece with celebrations of Zeus and Hera’s marriage in February.
In the 5th century, Pope Gelasius declared February 14th as St. Valentine’s Day, and many Catholics honored the day with religious rituals and feasts. These festivities, however, took a romantic turn in 1357. Chaucer’s poetry translated the word “valentine” into a term of endearment for “loved one.” As a result, we now celebrate love and partnership on February 14th, Valentine’s Day.
Couples, Galentine’s, or singles, here’s how to celebrate in Baltimore:
All You Knead Is Love, And A Good Dinner
Does someone octopi your heart? If so, treat them to a delectable dinner at Jimmy’s Famous Seafood. They’re currently accepting Valentine’s Day reservations from 6:00—9:00 p.m. Jimmy’s Famous Seafood will have a prix fixe menu with surf and turf, and mouth-watering desserts.
Schola is hosting an Aphrodisiacs Dinner from 5:00—8:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 12th. For $90/person, experience roasted oysters, lobster ravioli, beef wellington, and a dark chocolate flourless cake. Tickets are available online.
Mama’s on the Half Shell’s chefs carefully curated their Valentine’s Day menu this year. Their exquisite seafood can be enjoyed in-restaurant with a reservation or at home with carryout options.
Looking for something a bit more romantic? @belvedereandcoevents are partnering with Owl Bar this Valentine’s Day. From 4:00-9:00 p.m., guests can enjoy a prix fixe dinner in the Eager Howard Ballroom. Dinner is $85 per person and includes specialty cocktails and a wine list.
We’re big fans of Bondhouse in Fells Point. This Valentine’s Day, they’re offering a prix fixe menu of $95/person; dinner consists of one shareable appetizer, two entrees, two glasses of wine, and one dessert.
We Love You A Whole Brunch
You don’t need romance to enjoy a boozy brunch. Absolutely Dragulous is throwing a Valentine’s Drag Brunch on Saturday, February 11th, at Peabody’s Heights; doors are open from noon to 2:00 p.m.
Love your girlfriends a latte? Take them out to a Galentine’s Flamingle’s Brunch at the Maryland Zoo. $110 tickets include zoo admission, access to the brunch buffet and open bar, drag performances, bingo, and trivia. Couples and singles are also invited!
These Would Be Gouda For You
Checkerspot is getting cheesy this Valentine’s Day. On Friday, February 10th, they’re hosting a make-your-own charcuterie board event. For 1.5 hours, Christin of Boards in a Box will teach the class how to make the perfect cheese arrangement and compliment cheeses with various types of meat. Tickets are perfect for singles, Galentine’s, or couples; one beer comes with a ticket purchase.
On Saturday, February 11th, Guildford Hall Brewery is hosting a Board in a Box night at noon. If attending by yourself, tickets are $75/person; double admission (two guests) is $90. The first two drinks are free with your ticket purchase.
Gals’ Night Out
Kooper’s Tavern is celebrating Galentine’s Day on February 9th from 6:00—9:00 p.m. There will be pop-up shops, psychic readings, and bottomless prosecco, sangria, and High Noon.
Obsessed with T Swift? No Way Rosé is celebrating the queen herself on Friday, February 10th, with a T Swift Galentine’s Dance from 8:00 p.m. — 2:00 a.m. Tickets are available online.
Party in style at The Point in Fells. On Saturday, February 11, they’re throwing a Girls’ Party at 9:00 p.m. with an open bar, finger foods, photo booth, and DJ. Did you know they also have espresso martini machines available for use?
Looking For a Gift?
Whether it’s for a loved one—or a treat for yourself—these local shops are perfect for Valentine’s Day.
Berries by Quicha is berry nice; their hand-dipped chocolate strawberries are divine. Try some for yourself, or gift a Love Box.
Bin604 is the wine we want, and they’re perfect for yourself, a friend, or a loved one. Shop their world-renowned collection of bubblies, whites, roses, or reds.
Charm City Chocolate will have that special someone melting for you. If you’re not in a relationship, treat yourself to their delicious chocolate-covered strawberries, chocolate boxes, chocolate-covered pretzels, truffles, or gummies.
Happy Valentine’s Day
However you choose to celebrate, we hope you have an enjoyable Valentine’s Day!

Labor Day weekend is almost here! As the last long weekend of the summer, it’s a great opportunity for one last hurrah before the weather cools down.
Labor Day is about more than just barbeques and poolside hangouts though––it’s a day to commemorate the contributions of everyone who is part of the workforce. The holiday has been honored since September 1882, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union.
Top Destinations for Labor Day Weekend Trips
Still need to make your long weekend plans? Use this guide to help you create a great Labor Day Weekend itinerary at nearby destinations, all not too far from your home at The Promenade.
1.5 hours away from Baltimore
If you only have time for a day trip, we recommend Harper’s Ferry. As a historical park, Harper’s Ferry offers a glimpse into history dating back to the 1800s. Spend some time checking out the exhibits, then explore the park’s 20+ miles of hiking trails, picnic spots, and more.
2 hours away from Baltimore
Who doesn’t love a quaint coastal town? St. Michael’s is the perfect place to live out your seaside dreams. There are plenty of cute inns and B&Bs to stay in and some great dining options. Don’t miss the town’s one-of-a-kind boutique shopping, too.
2.5 hours away from Baltimore
Enjoy a luxurious stay with a historic charm at Bedford Springs. The Omni Bedford Springs Resort’s beautiful grounds are the perfect place to soak up summer’s last moments. Spend the days poolside or at their world-renowned spa, or play a round of golf.
Tilghman Island is another charming place for a quick Labor Day Weekend vacation. Go sailing, fishing, or stroll around the island, then enjoy a nice dinner at one of their many highly-rated restaurants. With a relaxing slow pace, this island is a great escape from city life.
3 hours away from Baltimore
There’s something for everyone at Ocean City. With everything from water sports, to boutique shopping, to wine tasting, OCMD is a fantastic destination no matter how you want to spend your long weekend.
Or, head to Delaware to visit Rehoboth Beach or Dewey Beach. With exciting nightlife and beautiful beaches, these destinations are perfect for a trip with friends. Spend the day swimming and sunbathing, then enjoy dinner and dessert at one of the beaches’ many eateries.
Another great seaside option is Cape May. Hailed “America’s Oldest Seaside Resort,” Cape May has a rich history of tourism. You can take a walk around town to check out the beautiful architecture, shop at unique local businesses, and, of course, get in some beach time.
Visit Deep Creek to get in touch with nature and spend a weekend at the largest freshwater lake in Maryland. There are lots of cool cabins available for rent, great for large groups. Many even have direct lake access!
3.5 hours away from Baltimore
Enjoy a mountain getaway in the Poconos this Labor Day Weekend. This large mountain range is home to a wide array of things to do. There are some beautiful resorts and spas for a mountainside retreat. Or, if you’re looking for a little more adventure, there are plenty of hikes, adventure parks, and water sports to partake in.
4 hours away from Baltimore
If you have time to travel a little further, check out Assateague Island. It’s just off the coast of Maryland, but it feels like you’re in another world thanks to the unique landscape of salt marshes and maritime forests. There are even wild horses that roam the island, making it a truly one-of-a-kind destination.
Happy Labor Day!
Wishing you a happy Labor Day weekend, Promenade residents! If you travel to any of these spots, don’t forget to tag us in your photos on social media, @ThePromenadeHE.

It’s officially summer, so, get out of your (crab) shell and go explore Baltimore during the sunniest time of year.
If you just don’t know where to start, then take a look at our summer bucket list. Here’s how to summer in Baltimore:
Anything is Popsicle
Everyone in Baltimore knows that snowballs are far superior to shaved ice.
Since the 1800s, snowballs have been a great way to beat the hot and humid weather. Snowballs are made from shaved ice, but are chunkier than Italian ice—the ice isn’t too delicate, but not too chunky. Therefore, they don’t melt or “water down” easily.
In the Great Depression, snowballs, aka “penny sundaes,” became a Baltimore staple. Baltimoreans started to sweeten the ice with vanilla, eggs, and sugar. Today, this flavor is called “Egg Custard,” artificial flavoring often topped with melted marshmallow. And, there’s a snowball for everyone, from tutti frutti and raspberry, to margarita flavors.
Icequeens is one of the coolest snowballs in town. If you haven’t heard of them, Ice Queens is a local Black- and female-owned business. After working at a snowball stand for several years, Dasia Kabia decided to open her own business. It’s been over a year later, and her shop is thriving! Kabia models her snowballs after New Orleans, and even utilizes an authentic Louisian snowball machine from the 1920s. All of her flavors are vegan-friendly.
For traditional Baltimore snowballs, be sure to check out Icy Delights in Brewer’s Hill.
For gourmet snowballs, visit Quality Snowballs in Hampden.
Baltimore’s a Real Catch This Summer
Don’t miss this baseball season — the Baltimore Orioles are on fire!
The Orioles are playing the Yankees this upcoming Sunday on July 24th at 1:35 p.m. Don’t miss out on an awesome game, and a chance to give back to the Maryland Food Bank. Baseball fans are encouraged to bring canned goods or monetary donations in the Annual Food and Funds Drive.
You have to get a Stuggy’s hot dog whilst watching the game — and a Natty Boh, of course.
The Water Taxi is the Best Way to Get Around
Enjoy the summer breeze, and ride the Water Taxi for the best way to get around town this summer. Or, embark on one of their BYO twilight cruises for a memorable night out.
Would You Love to See More Films?
If so, see a free outdoor movie at Flicks on the Hill. Starting at sundown, the American Visionary Art Museum is playing films every Thursday from 5:00-9:00 p.m.
Get Served This Summer
Who doesn’t dig volleyball?
Come watch a game at Baltimore Beach and enjoy some harbor views. Or, drop in and play a game for yourself.
Feelin’ a Little Crabby?
Baltimore loves crabs! Crab picking is a rite-of-passage for Baltimoreans. Not only are crabs a popular summer attraction, but they’re topped with Baltimore’s most popular flavor; Old Bay!
Don’t miss out on the best place to get crabs — visit the Crab Deck at Captain James for delicious crabs and waterfront views.
Time to Get Into the Summer Spirit
Soak up the sun at these outdoor bars.
Little Havanas is a local restaurant centered around Cuban cuisine. If you like the summer heat, try their spicy margarita with jalapeño tequila. Or, cool down with their spiked huckleberry lemonade.
The Sandlot is back this season! With the sand and harbor views, they’re bringing the beach to Baltimore. Sandlot offers canned seltzers, margs, and beers. They’re also serving their infamous slushies and crushes.
Ouzo Beach is just steps away from the Promenade. Their outdoor bar is inspired by a Mediterranean villa. Oh, and don’t forget that it looks out over the inner harbor. Sip on their refreshing Phane’s Poison this summer, concocted with citron vodka, lime, honey, and basil.
Happy Summer
From The Promenade family to yours, we wish everyone a great summer! If you do take any of our summer suggestions, be sure to tag us in your photos, @ThePromenadeHE.
