River Concert Series: Free outdoor summer concerts on the Townhouse Green, overlooking the St. Mary's River. Bring a blanket and enjoy the music of the Chesapeake Orchestra. Vendors sell food and drinks at this terrific summer tradition, now in its eighth year.

Governor's Cup Yacht Race: Now in its 33rd year, this grueling yacht race is not for the faint-of-heart. This all-night race on the Chesapeake Bay begins at sunset in Maryland's current capital (Annapolis) and ends at its historic first capital (St. Mary's City). An all-day shore-side party at the College makes this event a summer favorite.
