Things are changing in Maryland! Next year, Gov. Hogan will be requiring all public schools to begin classes AFTER Labor Day.
Why?
Maryland is filled with tourism opportunities, such as Deep Creek Lake and Ocean City. By extending the start of school, this allows people to vacation more therefore helping the local economy.
Enjoy the beauty of the fall season in the mountains as Maryland celebrates the 49th anniversary of Autumn Glory with two large parades, concerts, band competitions, art exhibits, antique and craft shows and much more from October 12 – 16, 2016 in Garrett County, Maryland.

My personal assistant, Ally, recently spent a weekend here at the lake with her family. Being one of the last weekends before school starts, the lake was so busy!
However, mixed with the perfect weather- it was a great opportunity for a photo shoot.
Check out some of the shots she got last weekend!
There were a few quick storms but it made for some awesome clouds!
And the weekend ended with a beautiful sunset.
Thanks Deep Creek Lake for being so good to us this summer!
This tweet from Olympian Michael Phelps’ mother Debbie (a native of Westernport) was making the rounds this week on Facebook among Garrett Countians, who were excited to show how much the record-breaking swimmer loves to play at Deep Creek Lake.
The photo is of Phelps and his sister Whitney having fun at the lake on July 4, 2013.
