12th Annual Tug of War -- Women's Team November 7, 2009

We are looking for women to tug on the Annapolis side against the women of Eastport. We will have 20-30 women on each side and, for $20, you can have a place on the rope. Here is some info on the Tug of War:

The Tug draws on the rivalry between Eastport and the city of Annapolis itself, civic pride on both sides allowing this zany event to improve more than community morale. The event has raised close to $200,000 for charities over the past nine years.

-Each year, the Maritime Republic of Eastport and volunteers from Annapolis and beyond work long and hard to put together this event. In addition to a riotous battle, great food and fantastic camaraderie, the Tug offers the chance to give back to the community that surrounds and supports us.

Proceeds from the Tug go to a selection of local charities, some of which rely on this donation as part of their significant operating budget. It is a family and community event of such considerable scale that it literally can't be missed! The Coast Guard and Harbormaster have allowed us to close the Annapolis Harbor for two hours while the teams on either side of the water tug away during the scheduled "heats."

We look forward to seeing you at the Tug!!
