On Aug. 16 to 17, the Charles County Fairgrounds were host to the second annual Outdoor Expo. According to Nick Simonds, the eventโ€™s organizer, โ€œIt was great. We doubled the number of vendors and attendees from last year.โ€

Simonds stated that both vendors and the public sang praises to the eventโ€™s organizers. โ€œEverything was positive. Everyone thanked us for having this family-friendly event here in Southern Maryland.โ€

Simonds is already planning for next yearโ€™s event and said that it will either be in the middle of August or a week later, depending on the national celebrities he is trying to attract to the event. โ€œAs soon as we know their schedule, weโ€™ll book the event for next year and the announcements will go out.โ€
