Memorial Day 2018: Parade, Food Fest, Tributes And More MD Events

The weather's expected to put a damper on Memorial Day, but, if you're able to avoid the showers, communities across Maryland have plenty to offer to mark the holiday. There will be a bounty of celebrations both solemn — recognition for Maryland soldiers and the unveiling of a veterans memorial wall — and fun, from the kick-off of summer in Ocean City to the Hometown Holiday festival in Rockville.
