President's Message
Hello everyone,
Congratulations to our tourism department on a job well done with
the Eastern Shore Regional Poker Classic which was held February 16
& 17 at the Wicomico Civic Center. Cards were in the air at 4:08pm
on Friday with over 400 players competing for a portion of the
winnings.
The event expects to donate between $10,000 and $15,000 the
“Tomorrow Fund” of the Friends of the Wicomico County Parks and
Recreation Department. This fund provides scholarships enabling
young people the opportunity to participate in recreational
programs. Great job everyone.
Spring is coming soon and so is the Fourth Annual Pork in the Park
Bar-b-que Festival. The festival will be held at Winterplace Park in
Salisbury Maryland on April 20-22. This festival is one of Wicomico
County’s premier events and is quickly becoming a Delmarva
tradition. We encourage all of you to volunteer and or attend this
event. It is your event. For more information on how to get involved
please call 410-548-4914.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Mary M. Seemann
CVA President |

Marketing Update
Spring is
in the air and that means that outdoor sporting events are just around
the corner. This year, Wicomico County will welcome more than 650
teams taking part in more than 30 different events! Excitement is
buzzing regarding the recent addition of the USSSA Girls Fast Pitch 16
and Under "B" Eastern National to the Henry S. Athletic Complex
schedule. The event which will be held from July 23-30 will bring more
than 100 teams to Wicomico County from as far away as Wisconsin,
Alabama and Tennessee.
The outdoor sports season officially kicks off on March 9th with the
Annual Sea Gull Invitational. This event brings in some of the
country's best college Division III Women's Softball Teams to compete
at the Athletic Complex. In April we will welcome girls fast pitch
teams competing in the Pony Qualifier April 14th and 15th.
The Tourism Department thanks you in advance for making our visiting
athletes feel welcome at your place of business. Remember, each of
these athletes and their families infuse more than $300 into our
economy for each night they spend in our county. Let's be sure to give
them a reason to keep coming. If you are interested in reaching out to
any of these out-of-town guests, please contact Andy Wisk at
