Talking to booth visitors and collecting petition signatures
A crew from the Maryland Libertarian Party again made the trek to Crisfield in southern Maryland to attend the 27th Annual J. Millard Tawes Crab and Clam Bake. It looked like rain might dowse the event, but that never occurred, and the clouds instead kept the heat to a manageable level.

Rachel Ridout, Chuck Andrasco, Ruth Andrasco, Spear Lancaster, Chip Spangler);

The Maryland Libertarian Party was well represented at the 69th annual Dundalk Heritage Parade. Bill Buzzell drove his car, preceded by the Culpepper Militia Flag ("Don't Tread on the..."), "Old Glory," and the Libertarian Party of Maryland banner. A total of 11, including two children, walked the approximately two mile route through Dundalk. As the procession passed by each of the two reviewing stands, they were introduced to the crowd as "The third largest political party in the nation."
