Cover Story:
The 2019 U.S. Power and Sailboat Shows
|
Annapolis Boat Shows, the organization responsible for operating the annual power and sail shows, cites that boaters and sailors from around the world gather on miles of docks in historic downtown Annapolis every October to celebrate some 50 years of boat show experiences. In particular, The United States Sailboat Show is an internationally-acclaimed event, recognized as the world’s largest and most prestigious show of its kind.
"We've [Haven Harbour Marina] been attending the boat shows now for over 20 years," said Mark Bryden, chief operating officer at Haven Harbour Marina Resorts. "With the events happening so close to our operation, there's no reason not to attend."
Boat show goers enjoy the opportunity to board and inspect new models from virtually every major power and sail manufacturer, make side-by-side comparisons of models, talk to industry experts and representatives and see the latest in boating products and services. Visitors may also enjoy hours of exhibiting, shopping, eating, drink tasting and live entertainment over the course of back-to-back weekends.
HHMR, representing both Haven Harbour Marina and Haven Harbour South, our complete yacht services department and the Inn at Haven Harbour, will be stationed at Booths A2-A4 for the remainder of this weekend's Sailboat Show.

Community:
Our new participation in Maryland's Adopt-A-Highway program
|
Haven Harbour Marina Resorts has adopted one mile of MD-20 between Ricauds Branch Road and Shipyard Lane in Rock Hall as new participants in the Maryland State Highway Administration's (MDOT SHA) Adopt-A-Highway program.
The decision to participate was greatly motivated by our interest in and advocation for a cleaner environment.
"It's important for businesses, particularly one of our size and nature, to give back not only to our surrounding community but to the local environment as well," said Sawyer Cornelius, marketing manager at Haven Harbour. "This program allows us to do both, while also serving as a starting point for increased community involvement over the coming years."
SHA mandates participating companies and organizations to maintain their assigned portions of public roadway at least four times each year, supplying participants with safety vests, gloves, bags, signs and litter removal service to complete pick-ups in a safe and efficient manner.
"A mix of office and yard staff will see that our participation in this program is a successful one – myself included," added Sawyer.
Employees will be conducting litter removals once every October, November, February and March in alternating shifts. Removals will be scheduled on paid-time during company business hours.
