“RAMs advocacy for the industry is unparalleled. They are not only a voice for the business owners but also the employees that keep the industry going. Ever wonder who is in Annapolis fighting for your rights as a restaurant owner or worker? It’s RAM, and if you are not a member it is in your best interest to join, because they work in your best interest.”

“This is a fantastic place for HoCo residents 50+ to find community or solitude as you learn, exercise, eat a meal and experience FREE or reduced fee events. I highly recommend this place! The staff is at the top of their game too.”

“This is a fantastic camp run by talented people - our kids love it! They came home talking about all the interesting experiments and activities they did every day, and made so many creative projects they were able to bring home and share. They also really loved the yoga and the outdoors time they got each day. The whole environment seems so positive and organized. There were comprehensive, proactive safeguards against COVID-19 this year, and we had no concerns about safety at all. We are definitely planning to send both our kids again next summer! Highly recommend!”

“Discovering the African Art Museum of Maryland (AAMM) was an unexpected delight during our visit to Columbia, MD. Established in 1980, AAMM stands as a pioneer, being the first museum in Columbia and one of only three in the entire USA dedicated solely to the art of Africa. What sets it apart is the fact that it was founded by an African American, adding a unique perspective to the museum's identity.Meeting co-founder Ms. Doris Ligon was a highlight, her wealth of knowledge adding a personal touch to the experience. The impact of AAMM on the community is evident, fostering cultural appreciation and understanding. The value of the art showcased is immeasurable, offering a rich glimpse into the diverse and vibrant heritage of Africa.The museum's commitment to quality is striking, with each exhibit reflecting a meticulous curation that captivates visitors. Highly recommended, AAMM provides not just a visual feast but an educational journey. For those fortunate enough to encounter Ms. Doris Ligon, her insights elevate the visit, making it a truly enriching cultural experience.”
