special events
In the vast D. C. Metropolitan region there are endless concerts, parades, exhibitions, lectures, festivals and many more ways to be entertained and educated.
A Story:
One time my brother and I went to the Maryland Renaissance Festival together. During the day he was surprised to be accosted by the ‘Ratcatcher’ and asked to participate in the traditional sport of ‘Rat-pucking’…This he did nobly with other lords of the king’s court. See the photo below.
