Annual Burning of the Socks
March 19, 2023 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
It’s that time again…time to Burn Your Socks! Please join your friends and neighbors on Sunday, March 19, from 3:00 to 5:00 pm at the Community Beach to welcome the start of Spring with the Annapolis tradition of BURNING OF THE SOCKS! Hillsmere resident Jefferson Holland, Poet Laurate of Eastport, will be on hand to recite his Ode to the Equinox and Burning of the Sock. Due to the thick, black smoke created by synthetic or polyester, please only bring cotton or wool socks to throw on the fire. A limited amount of raw oysters will be provided, first come, first served. This event is lite rain or shine, however, heavy weather may cancel this event. Hope to see you there!
