SUMMARY:Catacombs\, 100-Year Vendors and History at Lexington Market
DESCRIPTION:Begun in the early 1800s on land donated by John Eager Howard\, Baltimore’s iconic Lexington Market holds the title as the oldest market in America. Ralph Waldo Emerson also dubbed it “the gastronomic capital of the world.” \nDuring the tour\, we will visit Faidley’s\, Berger’s\, and other vendors that have been in their stall for a century or more. We will also explore the catacombs under the marketplace. Rediscovered in 1951 during the construction of a parking garage\, the origins of these tunnels and vaults are mysterious. Were they used for cold storage before refrigeration? Did they house distilleries during Prohibition? We may not get the definitive answer\, but we’ll at least get a first-hand look at these spaces that are normally closed to the public. \nBe sure to bring your canvas bags to do some quintessential Baltimore shopping afterward. And while 10:30 am may seem early for a Saturday morning\, at least we’re not lining up when the historic starting bell would ring in the new market day at 2:00 am! \n

SUMMARY:Mount Vernon Love Stories: A Historic Valentine’s Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore historian Jamie Hunt is back with a Valentine’s Day-themed tour of romance in Mount Vernon!\n\nFor two centuries\, Mount Vernon has seen spectacular love stories\, bitter feuds\, and more than a few juicy trysts. The neighborhood’s earliest days include patriot and original Mount Vernon landowner John Eager Howard marrying a charming young Philadelphian\, Margaret “Peggy” Chew\, after her first love was hanged for treason in a plot that involved Benedict Arnold. Fast forward 200 years and Mount Vernon saw a 20th century graduate of its Baltimore School for the Arts\, actress Jada Pinkett Smith\, fall in love with and marry another noted Philadelphian\, actor Will Smith.\n\nIn between these two sets of lovers are the royal tales of Betsy Patterson Bonaparte\, who died wealthy but bitter in Mount Vernon years after an annulled marriage to Napoleon’s brother Jerome\, and Bessie Wallis Warfield\, who was christened in a neighborhood church (just across the street from where Betsy died) and grew up to become the Duchess of Windsor. Not to be outdone by royalty\, some of Baltimore’s most storied authors have ties to Mt. Vernon along with their beautiful\, sad marriages\, including Edgar Allan Poe\, H.L. Mencken\, and F. Scott Fitzgerald. And of course the rich and famous of Baltimore’s Gilded Age include more than a few with off-beat love lives.

SUMMARY:Historic Laurel: A Walking Tour of a Booming 19th-Century Milltown
DESCRIPTION:Originally called Laurel Factory\, today’s town of Laurel started as a 19th-century milltown with ties to Baltimore along the B&O railroad line. Situated halfway between Baltimore and DC on the Patuxent River\, Laurel began as a small grist mill in 1811. In the 1840s\, it evolved into a cotton mill employing more than 700 workers. And during the Civil War\, Union troops guarded the railroad line in Laurel\, the only rail connection between the North and Washington\, DC at the time. \nPlease join us and our tour guide\, Ms. Ann Bennett\, the Executive Director of the Laurel Historical Society as we walk through Laurel’s main street\, see the remains of the mill’s ruins along the Patuxent River\, and discuss The Grove\, Laurel’s distinctly African American neighborhood that got its start in the mid-19th century amid harsh racism\, and later institutionalized segregation\, in Prince George’s County.  We will end at the Historical Society’s museum\, which is located in one of the original mill workers houses\, and take a look at their new exhibit commemorating the 150th anniversary of the town’s incorporation.

SUMMARY:The Caffeinated City: A Tour of Zeke’s Coffee Roastery and Baltimore’s Coffee History
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Rhodes sold his first pound of coffee at the Baltimore Farmers’ Market in November 2005 using a newly acquired one-pound coffee roaster. In doing so\, Mr. Rhodes’ new business\, Zeke’s Coffee\, joined a long line of coffee connoisseurs in Baltimore. The line includes Alex. Brown and Sons\, the nation’s first investment bank\, which imported so much coffee that it became the firm’s main source of revenue by the late 19th century. The line also includes Mr. Deaver Y. Smith Sr.\, who in 1906 established Smith Punch Base Coffee and Tea Company\, the third black-owned business in the 1400 block of Pennsylvania Avenue that operated for 65 years.  \nToday\, Zeke’s is still family owned and now operates in three cities using its unique roasting process where a fountain of beans is continuously agitated by a stream of hot air. Join us for an espresso-ily energizing tour of Zeke’s Coffee as we talk about Baltimore’s history of coffee and learn about the art of coffee roasting.

SUMMARY:Serving from Above: A Tour of the Maryland State Police Aviation Command
DESCRIPTION:Since 1784\, when 13-year-old Edward Warren became the first American to ascend in a hot air balloon above Baltimore\, Maryland has been a leader in flight. The Maryland State Police has been serving the state from above since 1954 when it acquired its first aircraft\, a donated\, two-seat\, radio-equipped airplane. On March 19\, 1970\, the command performed the first civilian medevac transport of an injured patient from a crash that occurred on the Baltimore Beltway to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center. Never before had a civilian agency transported a critically injured trauma patient by helicopter in a non-military setting. From hot air balloons to civilian helicopter medevacs\, Baltimore has been a city of aviation firsts.  \nSince the 1970s\, the Maryland State Police Aviation Command has transported over 150\,000 patients. And its duties have grown to include law enforcement and homeland security support\, search and rescue\, aerial rescue and disaster assessment. We hope you will join us for this incredible behind-the-scenes tour led by some of Maryland’s own State Police pilots and medics. We’ll see you in the hangar!
